Co-Curricular Activities

At Leigh Academy Hugh Christie we pride ourselves on developing the whole child. 

The intent of the Co-Curricular offer is to provide a wealth of opportunities for students to experience new interests, hobbies, and skills beyond lessons. 

These experiences can enrich student lives’, allow friendships to blossom and nurture their confidence and self esteem. 

Co-curricular clubs and activities can provide students with a sense of purpose. It is a platform for them to have a voice and a safe environment in which they can truly flourish.
