Relevance
Learners thoroughly enjoy Life Skills as it has direct bearing on their everyday lives. Whatever is learned in school can immediately be applied outside it, and this subject opens the doors to creativity and self-fulfillment. It extends learners' knowledge of the environment and developes their capacities in Music, Visual Arts, Drama, and Physical Education.
Ideals In Action
We believe that the best teaching is often through example, and our staff is careful to demonstrate the ideals of balance and respect for others in their behavior. These are core values in Hudson Park’s philosophy. Attention is also given to human virtues, and during lessons, the learners are encouraged to show compassion, respect, consideration, and other virtues through their actions.
