Reasons why your local school could be the perfect choice of venue for your extracurricular activities

Your local school could be the perfect choice of venue for your extracurricular activities for a multitude of reasons, not least of all because – 

They’re well equipped for extracurricular activities, already!: Schools are designed to accommodate large groups of children; educating and supporting growing children, not only through academic activities but also physical education, meaning they have – or at the very least have easy access to – a variety of valuable facilities and equipment, ideal for extracurricular activities.

They’re easy to find: We talk about this often within our articles, but it’s an extremely important point that should always be reiterated – schools are extremely easy to find! They are often situated very close to easily accessible transport links such as regular bus route(s) and train stations, as well as being easily identifiable on maps & via GPS systems. Schools are integral elements of the community in which they are placed and are therefore well-known by so many people in their local area. For anyone with a group or club offering extracurricular activities, this makes signing up an easier and simpler choice for potential attendees as they’ll: 

• Likely know where the school is located
• Know how or be able to easily find a way to get there (and back!)
• Have transport options, depending on circumstances

Regular, ongoing bookings and building relationships is encouraged: Regular, ongoing bookings are encouraged, as well as building relationships between school and hirer, meaning that so much uncertainty is ‘taken away’ when booking your venue; you know who you’re hiring from, who to call if you have a question or need support, and you know that the venue you’re hiring from most likely wants you there for as long as you want to be there! 

What’s more, by hiring school facilities in favour of an alternative venue type, you’re supporting your local community and the young families living and working in your area.
