There’s an amazing choice of activities outside the curriculum to get involved in as a Brighton Girls Sixth Former. Whether it’s championing our charity initiatives as a Guild Rep, or nourishing leadership and teamwork skills by being a House Captain.
Sport
There’s a huge range of sports to choose from. From the more tradition netball, hockey, and gymnastics to less familiar sports like lacrosse, paddle boarding and bouldering.
Performing arts
Dance is also well served, with an opportunity to participate in both the annual school dance show and a national dance competition in collaboration with our dance company in residence, Penny & Jules Dance. In terms of other performing arts there’s the chance to perform in a wide range of orchestras, choirs and drama productions.
The range of extra-curricular activities, foreign trips and music tours on offer is impressive. My girls look forward to going to school every day, which is something I could never say for myself.

Trips
Over recent years girls from Years 10-13 have visited Ethiopia, Romania and Malawi running summer schools for local children. These trips have been run in conjunction with the charity CRED, and have been truly life changing experiences for students.
Art
Closer to home there are visits to a vast range of museums, galleries and the Sussex coast. Our proximity to London also enables us to take in the exhibitions and performances there. Art is a hugely popular subject and we’re privileged to have our own Artist in Residence to support and inspire the girls’ work.
