Learning and Teaching
On Thursday 17 August and Friday 18 August, all students will participate in the Life Education Incursion.
Life Education has the belief that prevention is better than cure. With the constant changes happening in our world today, education plays a critical role in equipping students with the appropriate tools to both survive and thrive.
