External After School Clubs

After-school Clubs

We are very fortunate to be able to facilitate many community led after school clubs in our school. We hope that we can continue with these and many other external clubs into the future. 

Our teachers  also run after school clubs which are detailed each term. Below are details of the clubs that currently run in our school. Please note that these are privately run and should be contacted directly with enquiries. 

Anyone4science was founded in 2005 with the aim of bringing high levels of science education to children. Our leaders are passionate about both education and science with an aim to provide an environment where children, their parents and
teachers discover through active learning, laboratory experiments, workshops and demonstrations that science is fun and interesting. By awakening this interest, we hope to guide the future generation of scientists to this new world.

Anyone 4 Science, provides fun hands-on science
engineering and maths activities in your child’s school.
Once a week our teacher meets the children from their
class teacher at the end of the school day and takes them
back into a classroom in the school for a science lesson
involving a hands on activity.
We follow a curriculum that we have developed over many
years and which we repeat on a three yearly cycle. Our
lessons are age appropriate but based on topics that are
usually taught at 2nd or 3rd level. We cover 2 topics per
term and over each year have a range of biology,
chemistry and physics.
Our teachers are all garda vetted and have science,
engineering or maths qualifications.
In Citywest & Saggart CNS science takes place on a
Thursday.
Time: 13:40pm for Junior and Senior Infants
14:40 for children from 1st – 6th Class
This term is 13 weeks starting on September 19th and
costs €195. Sibling discounts apply.
