As the girls beaver away at their midterm exams, the on-campus clubs remain active to help them stay balanced in their studies. The girls will be writing exams from today until Wednesday afternoon, sometimes with four midterms in a day. Having their regular extra-curricular clubs helps them to de-stress and enjoy some time together, away from the books.

This term, the girls could choose to participate in football, volleyball, table tennis, drama and media clubs.

The football, volleyball and table tennis clubs are in training for upcoming competitions against area schools. The newly formed drama club is working on a play that will be presented at Daraja. And the media club has been learning about interview techniques and photography.

Daraja’s clubs meet twice a week throughout the term and help the girls to balance their heavy academic schedule.

The clubs change around each term – science, environment, athletics, cross-country and touchstone club, which looks at stories from around the world that present moral questions, have been offered in other terms.
