Extracurricular Activities at Buckswood School: Clubs

Traditional interest groups cover a wide range of areas. If a needed club doesn’t exist yet, it can be organized on request. Academic circles, charity projects, modern languages, discussion groups, coding, or the young investors club — the selection impresses even the most demanding students.

Creative Arts

Music, theatre, and visual arts — three disciplines that have become hallmarks of British schools. At Buckswood School, each receives dedicated attention, which is covered in detail on other pages of the site.

Additional Lessons

Extra sessions with teachers are available to anyone interested. Special hours are set aside both for those looking to strengthen their knowledge and for students eager to dive deeper into a subject. The list of disciplines matches the main curriculum entirely, allowing for flexible individual learning paths.

Sports

Athletic competitions happen both within Buckswood School and against other institutions. National and international tournaments fit naturally into daily life, while opportunities to participate in sports are open to every student regardless of their starting skill level.

Sports Academies

Trips to Town

On Sundays, students head out for excursions, shopping, cinema visits, the water park, aquarium, or Hastings beaches. Older students travel to London, where they combine leisure with visits to prestigious British universities, helping them figure out their future profession.

Saturday Evenings

The entertainment program in residences constantly refreshes: pizza making, talent shows, discos, karaoke, themed parties, quizzes, and game shows. These events give students a chance to express themselves in casual settings, revealing talents beyond classroom walls.
