Extra Curricular

Adcote offers an array of activities including; fencing, riding, music, gymnastics, dance, enterprise club, debating, product design, LAMDA, STEM competitions and many more. Our staff deliver these activities with skill, passion and a knack for developing core skills.

These activities take place beyond the academic curriculum and form an important part of the ethos and school life at Adcote. Our extra-curricular programme is designed to stimulate young minds and provide girls with an all-round education. Our activities run weekly throughout the school year.

We encourage all Adcote pupils to get involved with a range of activities. We want all of our pupils to challenge themselves and try something new and unusual. Often involvement in a particular area can sometimes lead to life-long pursuits. We feel confident that there is something for everyone!
