新学期里,上海浦东洋泾-菊园实验学校推出了学生课外活动“高尔夫”兴趣班,据悉,在公办学校开展高尔夫兴趣班,在上海尚属首例。

For pupils bored of the traditional extra-curricular activities, such as violin lessons or drama classes, there is now another option golf. Shanghai Yangjing-Juyuan Experimental1 School has recently introduced the country's first golf lessons, costing 4,800 yuan (US$585) a term, for its pupils.

报道中的extra-curricular activities就是我们自小都在接触的“课外活动”。所谓“课外活动”就是学校里不包括curricular(正规课程)在内的各项活动,说白了,就是除必修课外再“额外附加”的活动。

“额外附加的”,“在…之外的”可用前缀extra-来表达,英语中类似的合成词如:extramarital love(婚外恋),extra charge(附加费),extra income(额外收入)。

看下面一个例句:She' s involved in many extra-curricular activities, such as music, sport and drama.(她参加了许多课外活动,如音乐、体育运动和戏剧。)
