INTRODUCTION Dear Parents, It gives me great pleasure to present the 2018 Spring Term Dulwich Prep London co-curricular booklet. Once again this term, we will be offering the boys a wide range of co-curricular clubs and activities that enable them to develop their social, sporting and cultural abilities and to foster their own self-belief. Participation in the co-curricular programme at Dulwich Prep London is strongly encouraged, valued and inclusive and we hope that the boys will take advantage of the clubs and activities on offer. The Middle and Upper School boys should be looking to choose clubs that will incorporate a range of skills and help them work towards their All Rounder Award. This booklet contains a comprehensive timetable of clubs and activities that will run during this Spring Term which we hope will prove useful to you and your sons. To register interest in any of the PAID clubs in this booklet, please use the Parent Message Centre which can be found via the Parent portal on the school website. https://dulwichpreplondon.myclarioncall.co.uk/login.php?centre=parent The online booking will go live on Monday 4th December and close at 16:00 on Friday 8th December. Please be aware that membership of most of our clubs (apart from those which are invitational) is for one term only to maximise the number of boys who can benefit. Current members may reapply if they wish to join for a second term but should understand that first time applicants will always be given priority. Please note that, once enrolled in a paid club the fee is non-refundable, and boys are expected to complete the ten week programme. Where clubs are oversubscribed, names will be drawn from a hat with boys encouraged to reapply the following term if necessary. We will be creating time next week to allow boys to sign up for unpaid clubs under the guidance of their form tutors. The main listings for the Lower School Clubs are in a separate booklet which has also been sent. Lower School boys can apply ONLY for the following Middle and Upper School paid clubs in this booklet: Chess, squash (Year 4), karate, badminton (Year 4), gymnastics, climbing (Year 4). You will be informed by mid-December whether or not your son has been successful in applying for a place in a club. Please note that any Middle or Upper School boys will definitely be able to find a place in a club running until 5pm on any evening, in case this helps you plan your childcare provision. All clubs will start from Wednesday 10th January. Paid clubs will end on Tuesday 20th March, allowing for a nine week course, whilst unpaid clubs will finish on Thursday 22nd March.

CLUB INFORMATION

A Good Read This Year 8 break time club meets fortnightly throughout the autumn and spring terms to discuss books that are thought-provoking, perhaps a ‘classic’, certainly ‘a good read’. Each meeting is led by a different member of staff, and boys wishing to attend a particular meeting should sign up in advance and undertake to read the book before attending. Amnesty International Amnesty International is a club where students will learn about and discuss human rights. They will also raise awareness and take action on human rights issues. Ancient Greek / Roman Myths Myths are traditional stories - some provide information on the founding of nations whilst other tell the stories of great heroes and heroines. This club will focus on the myths of Ancient Greece and Rome looking at various texts and videos delving into the stories that defined a culture. Art Club Boys will be guided through various activities ranging from drawing, painting, printmaking, collage, sketchbook work, photography/animation and IT through to three-dimensional elements. Some of the studies will be self-directed and investigative. The spring term clubs will consist of the following 4 areas of study: 4-5pm Monday: Scholars Programme This club is for potential scholars who wish to develop a portfolio of personal work. Boys are generally invited to attend but everyone is welcome to discuss suitability with their Art teacher if they are interested in joining the group. There is an emphasis on independent practice and students are expected to choose their own theme, carry out personal artists' research and develop ideas in response to their interests. They will be exposed to a range of techniques, materials and styles, with traditional and experimental approaches. (10 Boys) 4-5pm Tuesday: Experimental techniques This club provides boys the opportunity to explore a wide range of experimental practices through a series of workshops. There is an emphasis on mixed media work and experimentation.

Book Club Year 6 & Year 7 These clubs meet fortnightly and, as spaces are limited, are divided into two sessions, with half the boys attending a breakfast meeting and the other half after school. We do different things at each meeting - book swaps, discussions, debates or quizzes - and the only criterion for joining the club is a genuine love of books and reading. Boys should speak to Mrs Fletcher if they wish to join.
