Clubs in schools enhance learning through interaction and discussion. Every activity carried out by the club will encourage students to cultivate a different perception of life. Students get an opportunity to showcase and groom their talents. Activities conducted in schools not only benefit in shaping their interests and hobbies but also develop their leadership and social skills.

The aim of CLUBS AND SOCIETIES in our school to offer holistic education by balancing academics with extracurricular activities and also sharpen the spiritual life of our learners. Our syllabus is planned to make learning less stressful for the students without compromising quality. That’s why our school build various clubs that cater for various interests. We from the directorate believe in the importance of club activities for students because of the reasons below-mentioned:

• Students learn from each other: Whether they are working on the project in a group or separately, each one of them can learn from each other. They gain new insights and also learn the significance of valuing another person’s viewpoint.
• Students realize the value of unity: Clubs at school build small communities. They entice people who share the same interests such as music, dance, science, arts, or sports. Club activities assist students to cultivate a sense of unity and working with others in reaching the same goals.
• Students develop social skills: Clubs facilitate students to meet, mix, and work together with other students from different backgrounds in a diverse environment. They come out of their comfort zone and socialize with other students which are vital in the lives of adolescents.
• Students become more confident and independent: Clubs offer plenty of opportunities for students to take on leadership roles and show off their talents through different activities. Such initiatives enable the students to discover that they can be productive. This increases their level of confidence and their sense of independence.

The clubs in our school have been categorized into two

1. Academics club

For example Science and innovation club: Inculcates scientific approach and delivers opportunities to develop an interest in projects to train students in techniques of innovation and creativity.

• Cultural and Heritage Club: Enables students to appreciate and develop respect for the heritage and value diversity. Creates an exciting dimension to learning and preserving the rich heritage of our composite culture.
• Creative Art and Design Club: Develops imagination, creative thinking, and self-expression. Students learn new techniques and mediums
  of art through hands-on activities.
• ICT Club: Aims in increasing students’ awareness of computers and their uses in daily life. Students gain knowledge of information technology to better prepare to handle information-enabled devices.

• Faith and community development club

For example legion of Mary

Students of the Legion of Mary become instruments of the Holy Spirit through a balanced program of prayer, the sacraments and devotion to Mary and the Trinity, and service in a family atmosphere.

N.B.,

The academic club members will be meeting every Saturday from 2:20pm to 3:40pm while the Faith and community development will be meeting on Sunday at the same time.

We at St. Josephs Senior Secondary School Naggalama  have introduced new clubs to provide opportunities for students to participate in activities, interact with peers, obtain comprehensive knowledge on areas of their interest in a supervised setting, and form relationships with other students and teachers. These clubs are the platform for students to collaborate, learn and perform confidently and independently.
