Kesteven and Grantham Girls' School

School clubs run every lunchtime in school. Many departments run support sessions for their subject, but there are many other clubs that take place, including the debating society, cinema club, culture club, creative writing club, origami club, chess club and many others.

Musical talent can find an outlet in a variety of extra-curricular activities. The school has choirs, instrumental groups, a wind band and a full orchestra. Many performances and recitals by individuals and groups are given throughout the year, including at least two major concerts.

Interest in drama and the theatre is encouraged through the organisation of a wide range of theatre visits and the use of Theatre in Education groups. Those who wish to participate in performance also have the opportunity to join after school Drama Clubs, be involved in the school's annual production, or offer items for variety shows.

The DofE Award is a challenging programme of activities which will help each participant develop new skills, grow in confidence to help others and experience adventures. Achievements are widely recognised in education and employment. The school supports the participant in many ways, for example through training and information sessions with advice and encouragement to help each individual stay focused and on track to achieve their Award.

Public speaking is greatly encouraged, and KGGS has an enviable record of success in both local and national competitions. Students have opportunities to speak, either as individuals or as members of a team, and may give class presentations and assemblies representing their House or the school.
