Extra-Curricular
At Methody we believe in an all-round education where academic pursuits are supported by extra-curricular activites.
Our wide ranging extra-curricular programme provides our pupils with over 30 activities to choose from ranging from the choir to computing club, robotics to rewilding society and so much more! By taking part in this rich programme we hope that pupil's enjoyment of school life will be increased and interpersonal and communication skills will be developed, but most of all that they have fun!

The musical talent of pupils at Methody is renowned.
During Junior School you will be able to take part in many aspects of musical life. We have a Junior Orchestra, a big band, a brass group, a swing band, an Irish Traditional group and other small emsembles. Five choirs meet and practice regularly for various preformances, in Junior School you have the opportunity to join the Junior Choir and the Junior Singers. These musical groups practice regularly and take part in many school productions such as the Junior School Play, Autumn Concert and at Christmas the Nine Lessons and Carols service to name but a few.
Pupils also have the opportunity to partake in individual music lessons througout their time at Methody.
