Student Led Clubs & Societies
Designed by students, for students.
Developing new interests via Clubs & Societies
The Student Led Clubs & Societies, planned and run by students, is a weekly space for personal development, recreation and exploration. Student led and coordinated by our Clubs and Societies prefect, it is a space for exploring and developing new interests.
Clubs and Societies occur fortnightly and consist of various activities and discussion spaces. Each club has a student leader who plans the sessions.
Our Educational Programme, through its links with current affairs and 21st century skills, inspires our students to develop new interests. The Student Led Clubs & Societies complement our educational provision.
This collection of Clubs & Societies is constantly evolving. While students suggest new areas of interest, teachers also bring their personal interests and hobbies into the equation. The leadership provided by the student leaders in these Clubs provides a brilliant opportunity for development in this field via their work in the Virtus community.
The flexibility of the Clubs and Societies allows students to leave their personal imprint on the community, develop their interests and passions during their time at Virtus, and connect with the teaching staff in multiple ways.
