What is your child up to - besides eating - on an average Tuesday between 12pm and 1.30 or so? As this week's photo essay reveals, when it comes to lunchtime clubs, Harrodian Prep and Senior pupils have plenty of exciting options. Photos by Yana Kozar
Prep Art Club
Almost every corridor and corner of Harrodian's campus buildings features a painting or a piece created by a Harrodian pupil. Clubs like the Prep Art Club, led by Head of Art Laura Caldecott, fuel this spirit of creativity. In this lunchtime session she was helping Prep pupils make papier maché animal masks inspired by a range of different sources.

Boys' Prep Choir
Meanwhile, over in the Auditorium, twenty or so boys conducted by Mr Dan Maybury, are visibly enjoying a introduction to the charms of West Coast 1980s American pop rockers, Toto. They're perfecting a choral version of Toto's 1982 hit, Africa, perhaps to be debuted at the Autumn Concert in a few weeks time.

Girls Football Club
The popularity of football is continuing to surge among Harrodian girls and that trend is reflected both in participation and performance on the pitch. There is plenty of tricky dribbling and tough tackling on show among the years 7s and 8s competing in a practice match led by Head of Prep sport, Hazel Lovegrove, and many of these girls will be competing for places in school teams playing in local and regional cup matches throughout this term and next.

Terrarium Club
Head of Design, Mr Jake Murray also leads Harrodian STEM clubs such as ballooning and CanSat. His Terrarium club has a slightly slower pace and challenges its members to create a self-sustaining eco system within the confines of a closed glass jar and to maintain the cycle of growth and renewal for as long as possible.

14s 'Secret' Reading Club
Senior Librarian and bibliophile, Ms Lily Callon helps inspire a love of books in many young Harrodians with her enthusiasm and brilliant recommendations. The book this not so 'secret' club of year 10 pupils, are getting passionate about in these images is their latest must-read: Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London.
Prep Science Club
Our science clubs are brilliant at capturing the magic of science and as you can tell from the joy and wonder on the faces of the Senior Prep age pupils taking part that Mr Peter Saunders's Tuesday lunchtime session is having the desired effect. The experiment involved examining and observing the often spectacular effect of heat on a varied assortment of metals.
