Extracurricular Activities

A message from the programme Coordinators

At ESH Secondary our teachers see the potential in their students everyday and are keen to further develop their skills and talents outside of the regular lessons.

Bringing in experts

Not only have many members of ESH staff offered to guide you in these activities, experts in their fields are looking forward to showing you all the secrets you need to know to discover and develop your talents. This year we are again bringing in some talented musicians and artists to help support your musical and creative talents.

Get involved

If you would love to join one of the activities get in touch with the contact listed for the activity. Reach out as soon as possible, because some activities can only proceed with a certain number of students, so the sooner you register, the sooner you can begin! If you have any further questions, or would like to see an activity added that isn't offered yet, feel free to get in touch.

2020-2021 Programme

With the blended learning arrangements and COVID-19 restrictions, it is not possible to run all of our extracurricular activities as normal. Some activities cannot be run safely and have been cancelled, and others might be running in a slightly different way.

Any activities that are running on-site are required to follow all COVID-19 safety measures, such as wearing masks, keeping a safe distance, cleaning all surfaces and sanitizing hands. Students in groups A and B are not allowed to be mixed during these activities.

 


Under the guidance of the Student Council, students are invited to show their interest in forming new student committees. Would you like to see more social events at school? You could form a social committee. Want to see ESH do more for those in need? Form a fundraising committee to raise funds to support charities. If you have an idea, or want to get involved, speak to your class rep, the student leaders, or Mrs Byrnes. 

 

ESH runs a variety of sports teams who compete against other schools. Students playing in our sports teams are invited by their PE teacher and they are selected based on their skill level. Every year the teams are revised and new places on the teams are made available for new members to join. The PE department highly recommends students participate in their local sports clubs in order to improve their chances of being selected to represent our school. The sports we run change every two years depending on the European Schools Eurosports competition.

Eurosports is a sports event which takes place every two years, in which all European Schools come together for one week to compete against each other. It is a highly prestigious event and brings an enormous skill level from the other schools, so we want to make sure we send the strongest ESH team possible. Sports teams run at ESH include volleyball, basketball, football, badminton, table tennis and aquathlon.

Speak to your PE teacher if you would like more information.
