Overview
In addition to academic support and classes provided after school, our On Nut campus offers a wide variety of activities, including academic, sports and arts programs, and community service opportunities. These extra-curricular classes and activities allow students to explore their interests and express their strengths in a positive manner. Through their involvement in such programs, they begin to develop confidence and social skills while gaining valuable skills and experience that can be applied to later studies and professional careers. Though participation is not mandatory, all students are highly encouraged to take part in such activities in order to become well-rounded, engaged learners.
Community Engagement and Service Learning
As a core component for the IB Diploma Programme, Creativity, Activity and Service (CAS), and Wells graduation requirement, the school aims to support and guide our high school students to engage in their local community on a global scale.
Students at all levels are encouraged to connect their passion in making a positive difference in the world as global citizens. There are various student-led service clubs, projects and initiatives in collaboration with local NGOs and community partners aiming towards reaching the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals. Students take part in service experiences, inter-school conferences, acting as ambassadors and young leaders of the world.
