Parents will be contacted in the previous term for registration for the next term. Only the choir and orchestra do not need to re-register in the spring and summer terms as these clubs are a commitment for the academic year starting in September.

Club Cancellation
Club Cancellation
-
If your child's extracurricular club at the end of the school day is cancelled by the provider, parents are advised to make alternative pick-up arrangements for their child and to notify the school office via email of the new arrangement no later than 2:45pm. Parents should not assume that the Tetherdown after-school club can take their child following a club cancellation if they cannot make alternative pick-up arrangements.
-
Children who normally attend the Tetherdown after-school club directly after the cancelled extracurricular club (e.g. tennis) can go straight to after-school club at the end of the school day, however you will be charged accordingly for this session via ParentPay.
