At Rishworth Prep School, learning is about more than just lessons. Our Enrichment & Extension programme gives every pupil the chance to try new activities, be creative, stay active, and discover their talents — whether in sport, the arts, music, drama or extra academic activities.
SPORT, music, drama & art
Our PE and sports programme is fun, inclusive, and designed for all abilities. Pupils enjoy football, rugby, netball, swimming, tennis, gymnastics and more. Sport helps children build confidence, teamwork, resilience, and healthy habits.
Creativity is at the heart of Prep life. Pupils can take part in drama sessions, school shows, music lessons, choirs, ensembles, and art projects. Drama and music encourage imagination, self-expression, and confidence, while art and design activities let children explore painting, drawing, crafts, and 3D projects.
Many activities take place in lessons, clubs, or after school, giving pupils opportunities to try new things, perform in concerts or plays, and take part in friendly competitions. This combination of sport and the arts ensures every child can discover their passions and develop their skills in a fun, supportive environment.
