Education is about developing the ‘whole child’, and this means instilling a positive sense of self through good values, respect for others, compassion, responsibility and integrity.
In line with this ethos, we are always enthusiastic about supporting charities and giving our students the opportunity to lead these initiatives from the front. This is a great way for them to develop a sense of personal empathy, understand the plight of others and take pride in making a difference.
Here are some of the charities that our students have elected to support.
Shan Children’s Home
