At Lincoln Carlton Academy we aim to offer a wealth of different activities both during and after school.

Our extracurricular activities are really important to us as it provides further opportunities to for our children to flourish and perhaps find a new passion and nurture a new skill.

Personal development and extracurricular activities

Enrichment time

Each half-term every child has the opportunity to take part in an afternoon of enrichment activities. Enrichment activities are planned with all children in mind but particularly our most disadvantaged so that they can take part in activities that they may not be able to access at home.

This might include activities such as baking, yoga, dancing, needlecraft, gardening and STEM activities. It will also include elements of competition between houses where points can be collected towards winning the Inter House Cup.

Junior Road Safety Officers

The Junior Road Safety Officer Programme is coordinated by the Lincolnshire Road Safety Partnership and Roadwise.

Junior Road Safety Officers help our local Road Safety Officer (Pam Streets) to promote road safety issues within the school and the local community. Our JRSOs are in Year 5.

Being a JRSO is a very important job, but it’s also really good fun.

Throughout the year they are involved in lots of activities:

• Maintaining a notice board and making sure the road safety information is up-to-date.
• Talking in an Assembly or in Class on road safety themes.
• Arranging competitions - there is currently a colouring competition for EYFS and KS1.
• Awarding certificates.
• Using the JRSO website.

Mini Police

The programme runs for two years and is delivered by our local Police Community Support Officers to enable familiarity, local knowledge and confidence in the local policing teams. Mini Police Lincolnshire has been aligned to the national Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education curriculum as it focuses on children’s personal development, which helps them be more confident, resilient, independent and develop character. It also helps them to assess and challenge age-appropriate risky situations.
