Co-Curricular
Our school offers our students a range of co-curricular activities, some of which are delivered by specialised teachers.
Appropriately supervised ‘Rites of Passage’ are disappearing for young people in today’s society, with unfortunate consequences for those reaching adolescence and early adulthood having never been away from home. For our students, learning to be away from home for these short periods prepares the ground for a time in the future where children will feel confident about stepping up to the challenges of life in a healthy way.
