Newtown School is much more than a 9am to 4pm school. Our students, both day and boarding, are actively encouraged to take part in numerous extra-curricular activities provided on and off site. A variety of interests are catered for, ranging from Orienteering to Linguistics.
While students have enjoyed many successes in a variety of sports and activities both as team members and in individual events, in line with our Quaker ethos;
We value participation over achievement.
Other activities available to take part in throughout the year:
- Drama
- Debating
- Linguistics
- Journalism
- Orienteering
- Photography
- Gaisce Awards
- Reaching Out/Community Work
