New Round of School Clubs
We are pleased to share that whole school clubs are back. Students will once again have the opportunity to participate in engaging, 45-minute curricular-connected club sessions during school hours. This round, all students from Grade 1 to Grade 6 will explore a variety of activities, including fitness, creating comics, trivia, board games & mini games, riddles/puzzles and Lego,and more
During club time, students will be reassigned to teachers based on their chosen interest. This school-wide initiative is designed to foster connections, strengthen relationships, and enhance our students’ sense of belonging.
To show school spirit on club days, students are encouraged to wear their HMS t-shirt or any blue shirt. We look forward to another meaningful round of learning and exploration.
