The school year is in full swing, and Community Service is starting up at APP! This term, we are offering nine clubs for students from Years 1 to 6 to take part in fun activities with children from some of our partner organizations. The clubs include Friendship Club, Lego Club, Origami and Paper Crafts, Football, Swimming, Chess, Under Construction Club, Helping Hands, and Yoga.
There are still a few spaces available in some Community Service Clubs! These clubs are a great way to get involved with the community through making new friends from local schools, trying new activities, and sharing experiences with other children. Did you know that Community Service Clubs are in addition to your 2-club allotment? That means that even if you are already a member of two after school clubs, you can ADD a Community Service Club as a bonus. And every Community Service Club is FREE!
Take a look at the clubs that are on offer available for your Year Group:
