PLC Sydney's Co-curricular Program is one of the broadest and deepest programs of any school, with an extensive and engaging range of artistic, cultural, sporting activities and clubs.
At PLC Sydney we have an outstanding Co-curricular Program. As well as catering to individual needs and interests, co-curricular activities support our girl’s academic, social, emotional and physical wellbeing.
Girls can learn a new skill, or discover and develop talents and interests they never knew existed. It helps them develop initiative, fosters teamwork, promotes leadership skills and builds confidence. It also gives them the opportunity to form new friendships outside their peer group—and most importantly, they are fun!
