Activities

Dover Activities HS UN Night

Activities

A vital part of student life and learning, our multifaceted Activities programme provides students with opportunities to explore new interests, develop their strengths and pursue their passions.

They can do this through existing activities, or by finding students and staff who will join them in starting a new one as they make like-minded friends and interact with students from other grades and parts of the school.

Open to all students, the programme is founded on the notion of breadth of opportunity,  encouraging self-discovery and empowering students to take appropriate risks while exploring their capabilities.

Our intentionally diverse programme provides for students to enjoy success beyond the classroom as they build leadership and social skills and an understanding of group dynamics. Most importantly, they experience both success and failure and learn the value of commitment.

Activities invigorate the life of the College by bringing students together for creative, athletic, leadership and other endeavours. They are a vital part of student life and learning.

K–12 Activities programme progression
