Senior School Physical Education and Competitive Sports
One of the goals of the Academy is to create principled young people with a strong sense of integrity, honesty, fairness and justice, who respect the dignity of individuals, groups and communities. The physical education and competitive games and sports at the Academy prepare the seniors for real life situations and encourage them to take leadership roles and allow them to help others to tackle those issues confidently and in a spirit of cooperation. The programme enables them to productively analyse their own strengths and limitations and make informed decisions.
