Sets of awarness days were collated amongst teaching and comprised of world event discussions, sexual/mental health, fitness, extremism, drug counseling, student finance and many more. It laid the foundations for further academia and a well-developed youth. The end of the year was rounded off with activities week where we might choose from a range of extracurriculars. Speaking of, the extracurriculars themselves where many and varied. The teachers were themselves the best asset and the only regret I have is not paying enough attention to take it all in. Show less
