Extra Curricular Programmes

Preparing the Whole Child for the Whole World 

Even though GEMS managed schools consistently attain high standards of academic achievement, proven by external examination results well above national averages, we know that providing what children need to become exceptional adults requires more than just academics.

GEMS schools embrace a philosophy of preparing the whole child for the whole world, and this unique perspective to education provides opportunities for students to develop their potential.

The Millenium School provides a kaleidoscope of extra-curricular activities, community involvement programmes and school events which support our rich education programmes.These activities mould the students into informed, confident and active learners and  prepares them for the world ahead.

Parents and other members of the community are invited to witness a whole gamut of events showcasing the diverse talents of our pupils. Events that parents and students look forward to at The Millennium School are The Annual Prize Day celebrations, Sports Day celebrations, The Inter School Elocution Competition for Boys,  The Swimming Gala, The Fancy Dress Competition  along with a lot of Inter House Competitions.

House System
The House System is an integral part of The Millennium Schools' aspirations for its students for this fosters a sense of belonging apart from striking a good balance between competition and co-operation. These houses form the basis of many sporting, artistic and intellectual challenges across the school.

Spring, summer, autumn and winter symbolic of the constant process of change, are the names of the four houses.

The system functions with teachers monitoring their respective houses.Each house has a House Captain. The investiture ceremony which symbolises their formal appointment is a solemn ceremony held in the first month of the academic year.

These  prefects lead by example  take on their mantle of responsibilities seriously and diligently believing us as we do that this is a preparation for future leadership roles.
