STELLA MARIS COLLEGE
Extra Curricular Activities
Stella Maris has an extensive extra-curricular program with activities taking place before school, at lunchtime and after school. Each activity has at least one staff member to support and guide the girls. We believe this is an important way to develop a strong, nurturing community between the students themselves, and between the students and staff. Below is a sample of activities available to our girls which varies each year according to student demand and teacher availability.
