After School Clubs

Cockton Hill Junior School provides a range of after school activities led by staff from across school. These change on a half termly basis across the school year. All clubs are from 3:15pm till 4:15pm with a limit on numbers depending on the activity. A small charge may be made if outside providers are involved. Information and details of up upcoming school clubs will be sent via email prior to the club start date. Parents and carers will then be required to contact the school office to book a place in the school club.

If you require your child to be collected after school, there are private independent providers within the local community who you can contact directly.

2024-2025 

Hockey

Children have learnt the correct hold of a hockey stick and worked well to develop their control. They have learnt some rules of hockey and been able to implement these into game situations. 

Tag Rugby

Children learnt the skills and rules of tag rugby in our after-school club. Some of these children were then selected to represent our school in the local Tag Rugby league at Bishop Auckland Rugby Club. They were coached by U15 players from the club who supported with refereeing. It was a great opportunity for children to take part in this league at the local club. 

Gymnastics

Children participated in this popular after-school club led by Go Well. They developed a range of skills, focusing specifically on balances. 

Football

Children competed in the local Year 5/6 Education Enterprise football league. They remained unbeaten throughout the league then the top six teams from the three leagues all came together to play each other and battle it out to win the opportunity to represent the district at the County Cup Final. The children did amazingly well in 5 back to back high pressure football matches. We beat Stanhope 2-1, then drew against Thornhill 0-0. We then won 1-0 against Hartside, beat Toft Hill 2-0 and got our fourth win of the night against Prince Bishops in the last game. It was a tense wait while the results were collated but we soon found out that we had topped the league by 4 clear points! We are the top team of the 26 that competed in the league and go to the County Cup Final in June! We are so proud of our wonderful team who represented our school perfectly. Special thanks go to Jonathan Lockey who helped to coach the team every week as well as Mrs Foster, Mrs Lockey, Mrs Reeves and Mr Tucker for their support and encouragement each week for our team.

Yoga and Mindfulness

Children participated in a Yoga and Mindfulness club where they took part in a range of yoga exercises and other activities to support them to be relaxed and mindful. 

Invasion Games

Children took part in Invasion Games led by staff from Go Well.
