How Does It Work?

Participants set personal goals in each section and work towards achieving them over a period of time. The program is flexible, allowing individuals to choose activities that interest them and fit their schedules. Whether it's learning a new sport, volunteering at a local charity, or planning an adventurous expedition, the DoE offers something for everyone

This term we have focussed on volunteering and completed tasks both at school and in the community.  One of the highlights is the motivated way in which students attempt these activities when they know the benefit is for the whole Geroge Town community.
