Activities

We believe that children in Basil International Schools deserve the best and that the curriculum should extend beyond entitlement. Whilst academic achievement remains at the heart of the school’s educational philosophy, we offer a range of After-School Clubs through which we develop inter-personal, psychomotor and Life skills as well as other talents in the children. Therefore, every student is encouraged to join one or more clubs.

Our Clubs

The clubs (which are reviewed regularly) include:

Swimming
Ballet/ Modern Dance
Brownies
Taekwondo
Cookery
Art
Press & Debate
Chess
Safety, Security and Environment
Scrabble
Music (Private lessons available to learn Musical Instruments)

Music, Speech and Drama

Music is an integral part of life in Basil. We have an active choir and music club. Drama is encouraged in school, and primary classes have compulsory drama lessons. Our Nursery and Primary Schools have diction lessons with qualified instructors. Debating and public speaking is a regular feature in school assemblies.

The Music and Drama departments join together on a regular basis to deliver presentations, performances and annual year end concerts.

Sport

The school encourages its pupils to participate in a wide range of sports including, swimming, athletics, and football. The school teams take part in a lot of friendly matches and competitions.

Leadership Training

The school offers pupils opportunities to develop leadership skills. Every child is given responsibilities from Basic 1. pupils take turns termly to be Class Captain or Assistant Class Captain so that by the time they leave the school every pupil has had an opportunity to assume leadership roles in their class. Also, in the school community as School Council members and House Representatives.
These roles are keenly competed for and the pupils run campaigns and make personal statements to get elected.

We have competitions within and outside school, we attend science, Art, Literacy competitions as well as spelling Bees. Our students are taught to research and study hard to win and also to accept defeat but assess reasons for failures and take remedial actions.
