Co-curricula activities

News Default Image
To achieve their full potential, we believe that our students need to be challenged outside the classroom, as well as inside. We offer a wide range of Co-Curricular Activities (CCA), and we encourage all children to play an active part in our programme.

Our co-curricular activity programme runs every week:

  • KG2 - Grade 1: Monday - Thursday 14:30 - 15:30
  • Grade 2 - 11: Monday - Thursday 15:30 - 16:30

Infants and Grade 1 have a choice of one activity each day.

Grade 2 – 11 students take part in a range of activities in order to enrich their education through creative, active, service and academic activities. The opportunities aim to equip students with the right attributes and life skills to help them thrive at university and in the world of work.

We offer an interesting range of activities to spark interest and inquiry, and we encourage all students to step out of their comfort zone and try something new in order to find a hidden talent and realise they have potential elsewhere in their education. Here’s a selection of what’s on offer:

Co-curricular activities

 

From these CCAs, students can go on to represent the school at various events and competitions, such as the Model United Nations, Global Campus Debate League, sports teams, chess competitions, production and musical performances. They can even be chosen to take part in events connected to our collaborations with The Juilliard School and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
