Co-Curricular

A healthy mind in a healthy body is the key to all-round development, and there is a wide range of co-curricular activities at PCM to ensure this. Some activities are run during the lunch hour and others take place after School, at special or designated times. We encourage all pupils to take advantage of as many activities as possible. We expect all pupils to involve themselves in at least one co-curricular activity each term. We believe skills development should be embedded in academic programmes, rather than an add-on, to give students the best chance of shaping their future.

SWIMMING

Swimming is a popular activity at PCM. We enjoy the use of our own swimming pool, which offers fun in a safe environment for our pupils.

SPELLING BEE

The Edison school spelling bee takes place in November. Top spellers from Edison (grades 5-8) compete for a chance to be the overall top speller and winner of our spelling bee competition. Congratulations to our 2015 Winner.

BALLET

Ballet lessons are a wonderful way for kids to reap the health benefits of dance as well as learn self-discipline and body control. Ballet is a more structured dancing lesson focusing on developing physical skills, musicality and performance by imaginative stories on board the ‘Ballet Train’. Music and Movement offers a more creative outlet with child led tasks.
Our ballet classes hold every Tuesday and Wednesday. Pupils get to learn Ballet and Music and Movement. By learning the art of movement, we hope to inspire a sense of physical and mental confidence and foster a respect for the arts.

MUSIC CLASSES

Effect of music in children is awesome. Scientific studies show that learning the do-re-mis can help children excel in ways beyond the basic ABCs. Children who have a good exposure to music tend to have more intelligence than other kids.
At PCM, we expose our pupils to learn the foundation music and build their skills up on the instruments – piano, violin, etc.
