Service Learning
We empathise and feel compassion for others through community engagement and service learning so we understand the needs of individuals, the local community and the world through direct links to the curriculum.There are projects to guide the school community in this process which are either direct, hands- on experiences with organisations, indirect opportunities such as fundraising and research or advocacy through campaigns.Student Council and CAS also organises campaigns and support Projects.
Student Council
The Student Council is made up of pupil representatives from each class, from Grade 1 to Year 12, who are responsible for contributing towards the improvement of the school as well as local, national and global communities.
The Student Council provides opportunities for learners to develop their leadership skills by giving them the opportunity to take meaningful action in real life situations of their own choosing. The Council works towards publicising and educating the school community about issues and then taking positive action.

Social projects include raising money, food, medicine and clothing. Peace Day and Earth Day projects have highlighted the need to tackle fundamental questions related to sharing the planet equitably. Environmental projects around the school have highlighted the need for the school to be more sustainable and the council continues to be an agent for positive change.
Creative Action Service
In CAS, a subject component of the DP core curriculum, the learners continue their own explorations of physical activity and the creative process, and service to the local community. Learners make regular visits to nurseries and hospitals.School Partners GRAAC, AACD, Creche Nova Esperança, Projeto Semente do Amanhã. (colocar logos)
