School Clubs

Breakfast Club

All children are welcome to come to Breakfast Club each morning from 8.00am to 8.30am. This is free of charge and does not require prior booking – just turn up! The Club will offer cereal, toast, pastries, fruit and juice for breakfast. Our Breakfast Club is supported by The Greggs Foundation as well as local businesses who donate to us to reduce food waste. 

Access to breakfast club is via the main reception only. Breakfast Club is held in the main hall for all children. There are lots of fun activities to take part in. Children can play table tennis, enjoy games and puzzles or sit and chat with the other children or teachers and have a gentle start to the day.

At 8:40 am children will move to their classroom to prepare to begin teaching. Usual school rules will apply and as a school we reserve the right to exclude pupils from clubs if rules are not adhered to.

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.
