Hapori
A Hapori course is a non-curricular focused learning experience driven by student passion. Rooted in the concept of "hapori" or community, these courses empower students to explore diverse topics outside the traditional curriculum, fostering collaboration and a sense of ownership over their learning. With a focus on self-directed exploration, Hapori courses encourage students to pursue their interests, ranging from creative arts to technology and social issues. This initiative reflects our commitment to cultivating well-rounded individuals who are not only academically proficient but also deeply connected to their passions and the broader community.
Helping others without expecting anything in return is the essence of volunteering. It's a fantastic way to gain experience while making a positive impact. Whether you’re setting up for a sports event, helping at a food bank, caring for a sick family member, washing dogs at the SPCA, planting trees, or picking up litter, you are contributing to your community, and it matters. This course involves hands-on volunteering every Friday morning for two hours, paired with planning and reflection sessions.
