Extra Curricular
Here at Penny Oaks we strive to provide many experiences for all our children to enhance the curriculum.
As a school, we truly believe in the benefits music and singing have on pupil's attainment and their mental health and wellbeing. All children at Penny Oaks receive musical tuition, which includes ukulele and guitar. All of our KS2 children have weekly singing lessons with a professional singer.
As a school staff, in consultation with our pupils, we have devised a bespoke set of 50 activities that we aim for our children to complete before they leave our school. The aim of the activities is to provide our pupils with lifetime memories and skills.
We focus on outdoor learning, regular trips and residentials in order to further enhance our curriculum.
