At Cowan Public School we encourage students to participate in extracurricular activities. We have a dance group and choir for students to join according to their interest.
Cowan Dance Group
We currently have a dance group operating at Cowan Public School, which rehearses before school one day per week. This is taught by a qualified dance teacher. The dance group performs at the Sydney North Dance Festival held at Glen Street Theatre in Term 2. In addition, they also perform at other festivals, at school during assemblies and special days.
Cowan After School Clubs
Looking for fun and engaging after-school activities for your kids?
Cowan Public School is offering a variety of exciting after-school clubs from Monday to Wednesday right here at CPS.
- Monday afternoons will be BRICKS 4 KIDZ with Term 1’s theme of ‘Energy is Everywhere.’ Kids will explore how different forces of nature occur and how they affect our world. They will build models of tornadoes, whirlpools, and tsunamis. Vocabulary throughout this term includes terrain, peak and vortex!
- On Tuesday Afternoons, Gecko Sports will take the kids on exciting sports and gaming activities. Kids will enjoy obstacle courses, tag, crab walks, ball games, relays, tug-of-war, and their favourite sports. Also included will be hot day afternoon activities, games, and round-robin mini-games, including Soccer, Softball, and Touch Football.
- Morgan Music with Joy will host Wednesday afternoons. Term one will focus on ukulele/guitar and singing! Whether they’re new to the instrument or have some experience, our enthusiastic instructors make learning easy and enjoyable. They’ll explore a mix of classic and modern tunes while building confidence and creativity with every strum. Singing lessons will see kids learn about breath control and vocal techniques, with them guided through every step.
These clubs provide a safe and supervised environment for children while offering valuable social and developmental opportunities.
You can pay per session or for the entire term at a discounted rate.
The best part?
They're perfect for working parents who need extra support after school or alternative after-school supervision that allows their children to learn new skills or build on existing ones.
