Co-Curricular Activities at St Edmund's College
Co-Curricular Activities 2022 - 2023 Every day there are six academic lessons (Periods 1 – 6). After this we have a 'lesson' known as Period 7. This is when the majority of Co-Curricular activities take place. Students are able to choose from a wide variety of activities and these are very much part of the whole education provided at the College. P7 Activities provide a wealth of experiences, opportunities and the development of skills, attitudes and attributes. Each activity will develop a particular Virtue (which are also linked to the HPL qualities (and many will develop several.) Many lead towards awards and/or certification.
