CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Students are encouraged to participate in activities outside the classroom in all subjects. Teachers offer a variety of activities that link directly to their curricula. Students are urged to participate positively in order to initiate their interests.

Extracurricular activities

The extracurricular activities form an integral part of the NGI School’s educational offer and its understanding of providing holistic education competencies.

The programme is carried out through a number of clubs, each with its own trainer. The activities programme is assigned in two successive sessions per week. It allows the students to participate in different areas. Every student selects a club which he or she likes to participate in fully throughout the academic year, allowing opportunities to excel in their chosen areas such as:

* Sports (Swimming, Table Tennis, Handball, Football, Basketball, Gymnastics, Etc.)  Performing Arts (Music, Etc.).

* Visual Arts (Drawing, photography, Etc.).

* Science and Environment Club.

* Drama.

* Vocational study (Home economic, maintenance…etc).

* Technology (Robotics) and Programming.

* Press and Media.

Field Trips

Field trips give students educational experiences far away from their traditional school environment. Our conventional field trip sites include zoos, nature centers, and community-service facilities such as fire stations, hospitals and science museums. Not only do field trips provide alternative educational opportunities for students, but they also enrich the community through community service activities. Learning in assorted ways can appeal to various learning styles, helping students succeed whether they are visual, auditory or kinetic learners.

A fee covering the expenses of each field trip is decided upon the place where the site is. Buses are provided by the NGI School for such activities. Special instructions related to meals or dress code would be included in the trip notice.

Students are expected to behave according to school regulations during a field trip - both on the bus and at the site. If a parent decides not to send his or her child along on a trip, then there would be no school for that particular on that day.

It is believed that school facilities can have a profound impact on both teachers’ and students’ expected outcomes. School facilities affect teachers’ recruitment process, retention, commitment, and effort. As for students, their health, behavior, engagement, learning, and academic progress would be most affected by the quality of the school facilities at hand. We have ensured that our school facilities carry a high standard in terms of infrastructure, laboratories, and instructional space to maximize the mentioned outcomes for our staff and students. The latest technology is available at every corner of the school. All classes are smart classes to ensure that all students have the necessary facilities to enhance their learning. Our laboratories, libraries and activity rooms are excellent student-workstations. All classes and rooms are air-conditioned and equipped with security cameras throughout the campus.
