Enrichment Activities

Show all activities

Ark Alexandra Academy has a fantastic sports programme, ranging from our curriculum lessons to extra-curricular clubs, external club links and competitive fixtures and events. It is our belief, that all students should be able to access sport, both recreationally and at elite level. Within all aspects of Sport and Physical Education at the Academy, we aim to encourage students to experience and learn a range of skills and participate in a variety of different sports and activities. Fundamentally we want students to enjoy physical activity and understand its range of benefits, so that they continue to be active when they leave us. Alongside this, we strive to provide students with a passion for sport, to excel.
