The school encourages participation in extra-curricular clubs and activities. To nurture their curiosity and develop their talents, students can establish and/or join a range of clubs, led by students and advised by staff. Several clubs have a community service component, where students are active in a socio-cultural context. In the Upper School, there is a regular weekly clubs activity built into the schedule. For complete details on the range of clubs in academic year 2019-20 please click here.

May Festival
Each year, the Parent’s Association organises an outdoor May Festival, in which students, parents and the whole community participate with music, dance, games and food. This festival is a high point of the year for students and staff, a fun day out for the entire family and a magnet for hundreds of visitors to the school.
