There are regular school concerts, which provide a platform for the school's many talented musicians School productions provide a regular showcase for talent in both music and drama. Students themselves direct and produce plays and muscial events on a regular basis. On offer to our students is a wide range of further clubs and activities, including Art, Chess, Christian Union, Computers, Dance, Debating, Environmental Work, Science, Technology and Young Engineers. There is a well established tradition of school journeys and field studies which are organised to enrich the educational experiences. In addition, there are a host of day curriculum visits to the theatre, exhibitions, museums and higher education institutions.
All visits stem from and support the curriculum.
Each year group has its own student council, which meets regularly to discuss various issues including student welfare, fundraising and extra-curricular activities. Each year council then elects two of its members to serve on the full School Council, which is viewed as the representation of the student body and has a positive role to play in decision making related to student issues. The School Council is chaired by our Headstudents creating an effective dialogue between the students and the staff of the school. The school is organised into four houses - Glennie, Thompson, Blake and Russell. Every member of the school community is a member of a House.
