Extra Curricular Activities

St Thomas More RC College has a wide variety of exciting extra-curricular activities, additional experiences, and trips and visits for students to take part in over the course of each academic year.

We understand the importance of additional activities to give students a wide experience of exciting opportunities so they receive a well-rounded education and feel a great sense of engagement with school life.

We encourage all students to take part in as many additional activities as possible so they can make the most of their time at our incredible school.

Please check the schools Facebook page for further details on current activities or ask your child to talk to the relevant member of staff, form tutor, or Head of Year for more information
