Greystones Community College recognises the importance of extra curricular activities for students. Benefits are clearly seen for all members of the school community such as;
Improved teacher-student relationships- Improved academic performance
- Sense of involvement in the school
- Building of a team spirit and atmosphere
- Increased social opportunities for students
- Method to improve confidence and self esteem
- Developing leadership and teamwork skills
- Sense of pride in representing the school
In this regard, we are committed to providing a wide range of extra curricular and co curricular activities for students. The list of activities will be very much driven by student preferences and we aim to provide an activity or club for all students.
