Children will be grouped into three mixed-age activity groups, at times combining both International students and local day students. This creates a fun and inclusive environment where children can build friendships, learn new cultures, develop language skills, and have heaps of fun together!

Each day will include a rotation through three core activity sessions, led by a dedicated Activity Leader and Assistant. These sessions will be a balance of Sports and Creative arts, or Exploratory Learning, designed to keep children active, engaged, and inspired.

In addition to the core sessions, there will be shorter periods of supervised free time, allowing children to explore the school’s facilities and independently practise the skills they have learned.
