EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Students of GSCS have the opportunity to participate in a variety of extracurricular activities during their time at school — from sports,dance and art to personal development and community service programs. There are a whole range of benefits that come from involvement in these programs, we explore a few below.

We help your child build their skills outside of the classroom

Weekly activities can offer a welcome break from studies and homework — particularly for
primary students if they can spare the time. Depending on your child’s interests, they may provide the chance to get outside and exercise, see friends, pursue a hobby or simply destress and refresh their mind. They also help limit the time your child is spending in front of a AV or computer screen.

In addition to building skills within a specific discipline, extracurricular activities are great for developing general academic and soft skills. Think debating for public speaking, academic competitions for exam strategies and sport for teamwork. Balancing a number of commitments can help to improve your child’s time management skills, while finding an area they enjoy or excel at can boost self-confidence.
