Our extra-curricular highlights
Debating and public speaking
Students can develop their thinking, communication and teamwork skills through debating and public speaking. They also have the chance to compete in local and state events.
Creative and performing arts
Our drama, music and art programs help students be creative and express themselves. They can join in concerts, art shows and drama activities.
Trips and excursions
Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.
Chess Club
Join your classmates for fun and friendly games where you can sharpen your thinking, plan clever moves, and improve your problem-solving skills. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player, there’s a place for you to learn, compete, and enjoy the challenge.
Art Club
Come experiment with colours, textures, and new ideas while making fun projects with friends. Bring along your imagination and a love of making things. It’s your time to relax, create, and enjoy art in a friendly, welcoming space.
Green screen technology
Greenscreen technology allows our students to become news reporters, travel to distant places, or step inside their favourite stories—all without leaving the room. Using a greenscreen sparks creativity, storytelling, and digital skills, making learning exciting and interactive.
Eco Kids
In Eco Kids, students plant, care for, and harvest gardens while learning about the environment and how to live sustainably. It’s a hands-on way to discover the importance of nature, reduce waste, and make our school greener. Come plant seeds today and watch your ideas—and our garden—grow!
