Our co-curricular program is designed to inspire, challenge and empower students – helping them grow into confident, capable individuals with a strong sense of purpose.
With opportunities across sport, creative and performing arts, academic clubs, leadership and service, students are encouraged to explore their passions, try something new and develop lifelong skills – all while having fun and building meaningful connections.
Whether discovering hidden talents, forming new friendships or finding a cause they care about, every student at Penrhos has the chance to discover passions beyond the classroom.
