At CLC, we carefully support each student in finding the right fit for them - whether that involves high-level sport, advanced academic exploration or creative pursuits - all hobbies and passions are encouraged. Ultimately, Mr Pothecary believes co-curricular involvement instils confidence, resilience and independence - qualities that prepare students not only for university but for life beyond.Could this be your future?
