Our school offers a range of extra-curricular activities for our students to participate in. We are very grateful that our staff are so willing to give freely of their time during their lunch breaks to provide these opportunities for our students.
Rotakids
RotaKids is an exciting way for those 12 and under to lead and engage in important, lively activities that will make a positive difference in their school, in their local community and globally.
At the same time RotaKids develop the ability and confidence to take up their place in society as responsible, successful, effective citizens both now and in the future.
At Clinton, Midday Rotary are our sponsors who work with our Rotakids and staff.
"As a RotaKid, I endeavour to be fair to all to serve my community and to show respect for others“.
Our Rotakids meet first break fortnightly on a Monday and look at service to school, community and international initiatives.

Robotics Club occurs at first break for a group of students in grades 4-6. The two groups (beginners and advanced) work with our teachers and volunteers to program the Ev3 Lego Mindstorm robots. This involves designing, problem solving, programming, mathematics and team work.
