In other words, CCA is about more than just knowledge and skills; it also develops deep-seated universal abilities and logical thinking. We are more interested in the process of learning and the efforts we put into it.
Within the broader landscape of international education, we acknowledge that while knowledge and skills are essential, what's more critical is whether pupils can use the diverse CCA platform to refine their practical skills, aesthetic sensibilities, teamwork, leadership and decision-making, critical thinking, and the ability to communicate clearly and effectively.
At Wellington College Hangzhou, we firmly believe that our CCA transcends the mere imparting of knowledge and skills; it carries the mission of nurturing comprehensive qualities such as practical ability, aesthetics, collaboration, leadership, critical thinking and expression. These attributes will not only enrich and challenge pupils' school lives but also provide them with the confidence to navigate the complexities of society in the future.
The CCA curriculum at Wellington College Hangzhou is refreshed every semester for pupils from primary through senior school, yet its core ethos remains constant: to emphasise the five key virtues of kindness, responsibility, respect, courage and integrity, and to foster well-rounded pupils who are committed to lifelong learning.
Therefore, we view CCA courses not as a mere aggregation of interests but as a profound educational endeavour designed to enhance pupils' overall qualities. Here, we eagerly anticipate that each pupil, under the guidance of their interests, will bravely explore and surpass their limits, ultimately realising a more complete and enriched personal life.
