ENDEAVOUR COLLEGE CLUBS

Clubs at Endeavour College help to connect our community through shared interests, allow students to take on leadership roles, and give the opportunity to dive into an interest, whether as a club leader or a member.

Secondary school is a place where teenagers are discovering who they are and what interests them. Joining a Club is important to this discovery process. During school hours, students take the classes they are required to take and only really get to talk to friends and people with similar interests at lunch or for a few minutes between bells. Clubs help students to find and relate to others with similar interests and to talk and learn more about topics of their choice.

ART CLUB

Art is an essential part of the human experience. It enables us to communicate with one another, express ourselves, and get new perspectives on the world. Arts education can help high school students develop their creativity, critical thinking skills, and problem-solving abilities. It can also help build self-confidence and resilience. Throughout the year at lunchtime, students can hone their skills, complete an art project, or participate in ā€˜how to’ activities delivered by different teachers in the Art faculty.

FREQUENCY: Every lunch time in the Art Rooms Staff Leader: Mr Harten

BIG BAND

An intermediate level jazz big band run by Mr Johnny Turner. Catering for brass and saxophone players, plus a small rhythm section, this band is geared towards students with a minimum of 1-2 years playing experience.

Bible Study is led by Student Spiritual Leader Madelyn Goss with support from Andrea, Kookie and Pastor Chris. Everyone is welcome!

BRIDGE CLUB

Bridge is a card game that is very popular around the world. It is similar to chess in that you can learn the basics quickly but it takes longer to become really good at it. A single game of bridge usually lasts less than ten minutes so you get to play several games in a session. Here is a simple summary of the game: You play with a partner against another pair. A complete pack of cards is dealt, everyone gets 13 cards. Then, you talk to your partner through ā€˜bids’ to predict how many tricks you could make (highest card wins a trick). After that, you play the cards to see if your prediction was correct. It’s a lot of fun

BUSINESS CLUB
