Clubs & Societies

ISJ offers a diverse selection of clubs and societies designed to complement classroom learning and encourage students to pursue their passions in a structured yet enjoyable environment.

Opportunities for Growth & Exploration

Students can participate in a wide range of activities, from academic and creative pursuits to sports, leadership, and community engagement. Whether developing intellectual curiosity through academic clubs, expressing creativity through the arts, or fostering teamwork and resilience through sport, every student is encouraged to explore their interests and broaden their skills. Opportunities also include public speaking, debate, and global awareness programmes that nurture confidence and an international perspective.

Encouraging Leadership & Initiative

Students take an active role in shaping their school experience by proposing and leading clubs, participating in student-led initiatives, and engaging in inter-school collaborations. This approach promotes independence, responsibility, and the development of valuable leadership skills. Clubs and societies operate on a structured timetable, ensuring that participation complements academic commitments.

Trips & Residential Programs

Experiential learning is central to an ISJ education. Educational trips and residential programs provide students with first-hand experiences that extend learning beyond the classroom, helping them grow in confidence, independence, and social awareness.

Day Trips & Cultural Excursions

Classroom learning is regularly reinforced through curriculum-linked excursions. Students might visit historical sites, museums, and cultural institutions to deepen their understanding of history, art, and literature. Science, technology, and environmental visits provide hands-on learning, while performing arts workshops enrich creativity and exposure to music and drama. Business and leadership experiences introduce students to real-world contexts and practical skills that enhance future readiness.

Residential Programs & Outdoor Education

These immersive experiences encourage resilience, teamwork, and personal growth through activities such as hiking, camping, and problem-solving challenges. Leadership and team-building retreats develop communication and collaboration, while international learning trips broaden students’ global outlook. Sports and activity camps further support athletic development and self-discipline.

The Value of Experiential Learning

Participation in trips and residential programs allows students to:

• Apply their learning in real-world contexts, reinforcing classroom concepts.

• Build adaptability, resilience, and social confidence.

• Form lasting friendships and gain exposure to diverse perspectives that nurture global understanding.

Each program is carefully designed to be age-appropriate, safe, and aligned with ISJ’s educational values, ensuring both enjoyment and meaningful development.

Enrichment opportunities at ISJ extend learning beyond traditional academics, helping students grow intellectually, socially, and emotionally. Through clubs, societies, trips, and experiential learning, they are encouraged to pursue their interests, develop leadership and problem-solving skills, and engage meaningfully with the wider world. These experiences help every student gain a deeper understanding of their potential and prepare them for success in both academic and personal pursuits.
