Year after year, we've seen an ever-increasing number of schools eager to participate, turning this tournament into a much-anticipated event in the school sports calendar. The growing number of teams each year is a testament to the tournament's burgeoning reputation and the high level of competition and camaraderie it fosters.

CLUBS
At Stepping Stones High
School, we believe in enriching our students, fondly known as 'Steppers', with
a diverse range of life skills during their formative years. The concept of
'life skills' encompasses those essential abilities that one needs to
effectively manage the demands and challenges of everyday life. Recognizing the
importance of these skills, our school offers a myriad of opportunities through
various clubs, providing a comprehensive platform for the all-round development
of our students.
Our Cooking Club is
a perfect blend of culinary arts and nutritional education. Here, students not
only learn the art of cooking but also understand the importance of healthy
eating through the study of the Food Pyramid. This approach ensures that they
appreciate the value of good nutrition while also becoming self-reliant in
preparing their meals.
We
continually expand our repertoire of life skills. In our Pottery, Carpentry, and Paper Making clubs, students engage with
real-world tools and materials, gaining hands-on experience that fosters
creativity and practical skills.
The
Agriculture Club introduces students
to the intricacies of farming. They learn various crop-growing methods, gaining
an appreciation for agriculture and its vital role in our world.
Our
array of clubs also includes Art and
Craft, Drama, Dance, Public Speaking, and Music, each designed to nurture different
facets of a student’s personality and interests. The Robotics Club, for instance, immerses students in the world of
technology and innovation, preparing them for a future where these skills will
be increasingly valuable.
In
the Crochet and Stitching clubs,
students master the delicate art of threading a needle and learn various hand
stitches, such as running stitch, back stitch, and cross stitch. This not only
develops their fine motor skills but also instills a sense of patience and
attention to detail.
The Quiz Club is dedicated to identifying and
nurturing students with a keen interest in quizzing, providing them with
opportunities to hone their knowledge and reflexes in various subject areas.
Our Creative Writing Club offers
a nurturing space for aspiring authors to write, edit, and illustrate their
stories, fostering a love for literature and storytelling. Meanwhile, the Language Club encourages
students to learn foreign languages, with experienced tutors creating a relaxed
environment conducive to learning and conversation.
The Eco Club plays
a pivotal role in raising environmental awareness among our students,
instilling in them a sense of responsibility towards preserving our planet.
Furthermore,
we offer clubs focused on
Debate, Drama, Dance, Music, Science, Horse Riding, and Archery, each
contributing uniquely to the holistic development of our Steppers.
At
Stepping Stones High School, our clubs are not just extracurricular activities;
they are vital components of our educational ethos, designed to equip our
students with the life skills they need to navigate the complexities of the
modern world confidently.
