RIS offers students the opportunity to take part in many extra-curricular activities, the choice goes almost from A-Z (maybe we should start a Zoology group)! There is everything from Art and Crafts through to a Young Entrepreneur Group with many choices in between. There is something to interest everyone.

 

Here at RIS we believe in giving students choices.

 

We encourage belonging to interest groups as it is a key way for students to interact with others with similar interests and instil an open mind, team-spirit, mutual trust, respect and tolerance, all of which help them to discover, develop, and practice, many new life-skills which are ever more vital in the 21st century.

 

An educational system isn't worth a great deal if it teaches young people how to make a living but doesn't teach them how to make a life.
