School should be Serious Fun. Shrewsbury offers an exciting range of activities across the UK for pupils to enjoy.
Co-curricular activities take place every Thursday afternoon and all pupils take part. Involvement is not mandatory for the Upper Sixth, but we encourage participation for the first two terms. Options for the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Form are either year-long (Young Enterprise or mountain biking, for example), or modular, taking place in blocks. These modular courses allow pupils to build up their own varied programme of activities.
Many of the Thursday activities take advantage of Shrewsbury's ideal geographical location, on the banks of the Severn, within sight of the South Shropshire Hills, and an easy drive from Snowdonia.

BASE is a new Thursday afternoon co-curricular programme aimed at providing a foundation for our Third Form (Year 9) pupils.
The objectives are to focus on skills that are not necessarily obtained in the classroom and to develop competencies that will benefit Salopians in work, play and social relationships. The year-long programme is designed to be fun, testing and by design will push pupils to work together and make friends outside their usual groups.
BASE uses both sport and activities to achieve these common goals and is a truly co-curricular programme. Through a rotation of sport, outdoor activities, community work and expedition practice, we hope that pupils will gain a willingness to try new things, embrace challenges and develop skills of resilience, positivity, leadership, self-awareness of themselves and others – and have some fun along the way.
The sporting element to the programme gives our Third Formers the chance to be coached by some of our top coaches in a range of disciplines: rowing, fives, cross-country, cricket, hockey, football and netball. In all of this, there is a holistic approach to personal development, and we believe the benefits of the programme will be most apparent as pupils move upwards through the School and develop further these key skills.
The range of co-curricular activities on offer at Shrewsbury is enormous and allows pupils to not only pursue a passion but also introduce them to activities that inspire them to unearth hidden talents.
