Extracurricular Activities

Learning at FPS goes beyond the classroom. We offer a wide range of activities so every student can explore their interests. Whether it’s sports, arts, coding, leadership, or community service, there’s something for everyone.

We also work with expert organisations to provide high-quality programmes. Students are encouraged to share their ideas, so activities stay exciting and relevant. These experiences help students build confidence, discover new talents, and grow as individuals.

Family-First Approach

We believe education works best when schools and families work together. At FPS, we create a welcoming and supportive environment where every child feels valued.

We keep strong communication with parents through meetings, workshops, and regular feedback. Parents play an important role in their child’s learning journey, and many of our improvements come from their suggestions. Together, we create a positive and caring school community.

Our Golf Centre of Excellence gives students a special opportunity to combine academics with professional golf training. In partnership with leading golf experts, students receive high-level coaching and guidance.

This programme helps students develop their skills, understand the sport deeply, and even work towards scholarships or professional careers. It also focuses on balancing studies and sports for overall development.

University Pathways
