STUDENTS’ LIFE
Students’ Identity
The school plays an important role in developing a positive sense of ethnic identity among students, by way of positive interaction among ethnicities. Our students are made to feel both smart and proud in the way they express their identities. Student-centered teaching promotes autonomy, cooperation, and student voice.

Classroom relationships include teacher warmth and positive student relationships as foundation for healthy togetherness. Genuine warmth and friendliness go a long way in creating a sense of belonging, the promoting the unique identity of every student.
Student Council
The ‘Student Council ‘or ‘The Student Voice’ is a body of elected students working together with faculty advisors, within the school framework, to provide a means for student expression in school affairs and activities, give opportunities for student experiences in leadership building and encourage student – faculty – community relations. It provides students with the right to speak, the privilege of being heard by those in authority, by utilizing the ideas and support of students in solving relevant school issues. It also promotes leadership opportunities among the student body.
Students’ Achievements / Accolades
Awards and accolades are pivotal in a student’s life. Appreciating and rewarding is a great approach to celebrating hard work and success, especially in a student’s school life. Recognizing students with awards and certificates make them, their efforts and their work stand out, which will be a source of motivation and attraction for other students to work towards achieving. This is how we motivate and encourage our students at school.
Clubs
Schools today are all about providing a holistic education that perfectly balances academics and extracurricular activities. We too are on the same wavelength. Our school clubs offer the perfect outlet for students to express their hidden talents and skills. It is more than just a gathering where children of various age groups monitored by their teachers, spend time together, learning and honing their talents. They attract students who share similar interests such as music, arts, sports, games, environment etc. The club activities enable students to develop sense of unity and teamwork, learning how to collaboratively work with peer mates in reaching the same goals.
Extra-curricular Activities
Extra-curricular activities are essential for students as these activities allow them to learn about themselves as well as their interests. These activities have been proven to have a positive effect on children’s development. They enable students to develop skills that will benefit then in their future pursuits. Students have the opportunity to learn about teamwork, develop strong communication skills, time management, and may more. The students at our school have the benefit of opting to take up a variety of these activities.
Sports Houses
The House System is devised to promote team spirit and a sense of belonging to the school. It provides excellent opportunities for student leadership and peer group support. Our students are allocated one of the 4 Sports Houses, upon joining the school. The four houses are: Red – Arthur / White – Edward / Blue – Richard / Green – William. The allocation is made with a view to maintain a student strength balance between the houses. The House System allows all students to participate in team sports and learn the all the skills of true sportsman spirit.
Educational / Recreational Trips
Educational and recreational trips are included as part of the curriculum, to provide students with the joy of discovery outside school. These are educational experiences that allow students to apply the lessons learnt, to the real world. The educational and recreational trips are a perfect platform for students to bond, not only with their own peers but also with the teachers and adults who accompany them. Such trips enable students to open-up, socialize and get to know each other better outside the classroom. The school organizes a number of these trips keeping in line with the venues approved by the MOE.
Innovations & Creativity
Schools play an important role in creating opportunities for students to develop their unique capacities for thought and action. We traverse on the same wavelength, where our perspectives keep evolving and our students are encouraged and motivated to generate new ideas and apply them in practice. As educators too, we understand the attributes that we can count as evident for creative teaching and learning, by experimenting with new ideas, engaging students in inquiry-based approach in learning, willing to explore and accept constructive feedback, being highly resourceful and displaying imagination and flexibility of thought.
