Enriching Co-Curriculars at SJS
An SJS education extends far beyond the classroom. Our Junior School students have the incredible opportunity to explore a diverse range of co-curricular activities, fostering personal growth, creativity, and community engagement.
A Balanced Approach: Service, Creativity, and Physical Activity
Co-Curriculars and Clubs play a key role in guiding our students towards becoming well-rounded, balanced, global thinkers. 100% of Junior School students and 97% of Senior School students take part in co-curriculars.
