At Malvern College Egypt we believe in the importance of educating and supporting the whole child and recognise the needs for physical health, extra academic challenge and engagement. As you can see from the schedule for Co-Curricular Activities (CCAs) it includes many activities: ranging from learning a new language, playing an instrument, taking an art class, and others choosing to participate in physical activities such as football, Judo, Body Balance or swimming.
We hope that all the activities we offer will provide students with an opportunity to make some decisions, feel proud of themselves as they learn new things. The benefits of co-curricular activity in schools have been extensively researched and it has been found that students who participate in these activities develop higher academic results, better relationships at school, and are more likely to lead healthy, active lifestyles when they leave school.
Students also feel a greater sense of belonging and have a higher self-esteem at school when they participate in structured sporting, performing arts and other activities. In addition, the co-curricular opportunities we provide makes for a more motivated and engaged group of students, which leads to a happier and more cohesive College. Please think very carefully when choosing the activities, you would like your child to participate in and remember that your child is making a commitment to attend every week for the whole term.
CCA's run every Wednesday in 6 weeks blocks. Where possible, we will try to allocate students to their first-choice activity but please understand that this is not always possible because some activities have a limited number of spaces available.
CCAs are booked through the Parent Portal and communications are sent approximately three weeks in advance of the sessions start date.
Our extensive Co-Curricular Activities programme has begun! Here at Malvern College Egypt our students can enjoy a widespread CCA programme including learning various musical instruments, exercising the students’ sporting abilities at various levels, cooking, ballet, karaoke, samba and many more!
