Clubs & Activities ListAll-Round Education
Life as a Dukie extends far beyond the classroom. With a choice of over 60 weekly activities, clubs and societies, we expect all students to involve themselves in at least two co-curricular activities each term.
We offer a large and diverse range of co-curricular activities from academic enrichment, sport, CCF, music, drama, and the creative arts, these opportunities are essential ingredients to developing the whole person into a Dukie. We ensure there are activities which inspire and challenge every student, giving all the opportunity to learn about life in its broader context: its challenges and opportunities.
