“Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.” – Roger Crawford

IN FOR THE CHALLENGE The start of the school year is always an exciting time: meeting old friends, making new ones and facing new challenges, in class and out of it.

This year we have put together a list of extracurricular activities that are exciting and challenging, each in its own way.

So, it is time to take a look at the options in this brochure and then decide where you will throw in your hat! Hint: don't take the easy way...that does not get you much satisfaction!

We have lots more activities in the offing. The college is planning great adventures but we will inform you later about these!

Yours

Miss S. Abela
