Activities and Excursions:
From surveys conducted amongst our students, it is clear that extra-curricular activities and excursions are greatly appreciated. Not just as an opportunity for all the students to get to know one another better, but also to gain a better understanding of the culture and way of life of the country.

The number and diversity of excursions to interesting places in the vicinity at the weekend is great. There is no question of a standard offering. The students have an important voice in the excursion destinations. The excursions, for which you will pay a nominal fee, only go ahead if a sufficient number of people take part.
The activities and excursions are announced weekly in the office, where you can go with any queries or to put your name down.
