Grades 1-5
Children will learn the Japanese art of Origami along with a different aspect of Japanese culture each week! Origami will help to teach children to think deeply, gain confidence, solve problems, develop patience, visualize results and strategize and plan. Every student will receive an origami instruction sheet on what was covered that day, including the Japanese Kanji character and pronunciation, and take home what they make each week.
Grades 4-8
If you're always humming a tune, listening to artists like Olivia Rodrigo or Taylor Swift, or just want to sing out loud with an awesome group of people, this is the club for you! The Broadview Thomson After-School Choir is officially kicking off. We’ll meet after school to learn cool songs, play music games, and get ready for incredible performances. Absolutely no singing experience is necessary—just bring your energy and a positive attitude. Let’s make some noise!
Grades K-3
NOTE: There are 2 DIFFERENT K3 Drama Clubs, one on Tuesdays, one on Thursdays
Sing, dance, act, and play! In Drama Club, K–3rd grade students will explore the magic of musical theatre through songs from Annie, Matilda, and more! Students will build confidence, create characters, learn fun choreography, and practice working together as an ensemble. On the final day, friends and family are invited to a special showcase where students will take the stage and share what they’ve been working on!
Grades 2-5
Come learn about growing food and flowers in our school learning garden! Students will plant seeds and harvest some of what they grow! We'll cover topics like soil health, plant parts, the life cycle and more. This session will be led by Nicole Parish, an environmental educator from Seattle Parks and Recreation. Let’s get digging!

Calling all actors, storytellers, and writers—This fall, students in 4th–8th grade will take the stage in a totally original production featuring one-act plays written by you, the students!

We bring the ancient game of Chess to life in this educational and engaging program!

Yes! If the lottery selects one of your children, we will automatically select your other children.
This is a new plan we are trying this year to increase accessibility and equity for all families. Some families are not able to sign up right away and we still want their children to participate. We will randomly select participants when we close the lottery, and then families will be notified via email or text.
Yes! The PTA would love to give out scholarships to cover part of the tuition for the parent-paid activities. Please reach out to enrichment@broadviewthomsonpta.com.
If your child does not receive a spot during this round of after-school activities, we will make every effort to select them in the next round. i.e., if they do not get to participate in fall drama club, we will try our best to include them in winter drama club.
Please send a reminder email to enrichment@broadviewthomsonpta.com.
Many of the activities will be offered several times per year, and some will change slightly. For example, 4th-8th-grade drama club may turn into preparation for the school musical production in the spring.
