Cultural capital and clubs


Recommended Posts

We have been thinking lots recently about the things that many children don't have the opportunity to experience and contemplating running clubs at school related to them.  Firstly it made me realise just how very lucky I was as a child!  Secondly, I'm looking for ideas.... things I have come up with so far include:

- board/card games

- woodwork

- playing recorders

- sewing

- gardening

What other kind of things might you add to this list?

Depending on the age of the children, I ran a Goblin car club at school for over 10 years. Details for them can be seen here: https://www.greenpower.co.uk/

The children in the club do have to be between 9 - 11 to take part in the organised events, but in school, you could run it for any aged children that were sensible. 

It is quite expensive now to get started, but if you ask around, some other schools may have old kits that they're willing to give away. Also, sponsorship from local businesses can help with the costs. 

It's great for team work, as well as building a car, electrics, safety and driving!
