The aim of The Cottesloe School's clubs is to provide students with a diverse range of opportunities, from participating in sports and representing the school in teams, to joining performing arts groups or hobby clubs focused on Character, Healthy Relationships, and the 6Cs values. Additionally, students can access a quiet space in the library for independent learning or independent projects. These activities are designed to enrich their curriculum learning, support their studies, or introduce them to new experiences. While participation is not mandatory, we hope every student will discover something that suits their interests.

How does it work?

To ensure these sessions run smoothly and safely, we would like to remind all parents and carers of the procedures regarding attendance and registration for these activities.

Signing Up and Withdrawal:

Parents and carers are responsible for signing up their child for any after-school club via the MCAS app (My Child At School). If your child will no longer be attending a club, please ensure you request their name to be removed from the club register promptly by contacting the member of staff in charge of the club so that places can be offered to other students. 

Attendance Monitoring:

Attendance for each club will be taken by the member of staff leading the activity. However, staff will not be responsible for following up on an absence or ongoing non-attendance. It is therefore the responsibility of parents and carers to regularly check attendance on MCAS via a web browser and ensure their child is attending as expected. Unfortunately, the MCAS app doesn’t show club attendance.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain the smooth running of our after-school provision and safeguarding all students effectively.

If you have any questions about club sign-up, attendance, or MCAS access, please contact the school office in the first instance.

Thank you for your continued support.
