Extra-Curricular Activities
‘The more you put into life…the more you get out of it!’
We firmly believe that education doesn’t belong solely in the classroom but is a whole life experience. We have a multitude of ‘extra’ activities that not only widen learning experiences but also make academy life more enjoyable. We have regular visits to the theatre, cinema, concerts, museums and factories, both during and after academy hours. We visit relevant exhibitions on a regular basis and we invite external visitors to talk to our students on various subjects. We also organise annual trips and exchanges abroad.
All our faculties take an active part in extra-curricular life and offer an enormous range of after-academy activities. The table below details all the clubs/activities we currently have on offer.
