Co-curricular activities are not just a supplement to academics—they are essential in shaping well-rounded students. We aim to embed many of these activities into the core timetable while offering more through ECAs. Each activity is designed to build on our core values, helping students grow in confidence, resilience, and leadership. By exploring a range of interests, students discover their passions and develop life skills that extend beyond the classroom.
