A Year Marked by Celebration

Between April and the close of the session, this campus hosts cultural evenings, feast days, sports competitions, Christmas programmes and prize distributions — and every one of them is a teaching opportunity.

Students who rehearse a dance, run a stall, lead a prayer or introduce a guest learn things a textbook cannot deliver: preparation, nerve, cooperation and the plain satisfaction of finishing something well in front of people who are watching.

  • Cultural Day showcasing the tribes and traditions of the region
  • Christmas programme, carols and the school crib
  • Annual Sports Week across the four houses
  • Feast days and the Principal's Ordination Anniversary
The Big Four
