CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Participation in sport helps International Harrovians at Harrow Bengaluru to grow, learn and enjoy themselves, while nurturing their personal, physical and intellectual skills, and developing healthy minds and bodies.
For teenagers, the value of being outside, expending energy and getting stuck into house and school teams is well recognised: through sport, they learn about teamwork and leadership, and how to conduct themselves with integrity. The health and social benefits also remain with them long after school.
With a full-size astroturf sports field, a 400m running track, an Olympic-size 50m swimming pool and a sports centre incorporating squash courts, a sports hall and a state-of-the-art gym, we offer a breadth of sporting opportunities to match every interest and ability.
Under the guidance of their teachers as well as specialist coaches, our students focus as much on their own effort and improvement as on final scores. Many who may not have considered themselves athletes on arrival at the school discover new sports and the talent to play them with great skill and flair. Long after leaving, they will continue to enjoy the sporting abilities they discovered at Harrow Bengaluru, taking the lessons they have learnt with them into adulthood.
At Harrow Bengaluru, we encourage every student to develop their musical talent, raising the best musicians to a very high standard whilst also involving everyone in enjoyable musical activity.
Many students will learn an instrument at school, with visiting specialists in piano and a wide variety of orchestral instruments providing the best possible tuition.
Our students are prepared for examinations with the UK’s Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), as well as other examination boards. Importantly, musicians at Harrow Bengaluru are encouraged to become involved in ensemble work through choirs, bands and orchestras, hence experiencing the joy that comes with being part of a group performance. There are multiple concerts and productions each year, with many solo and collective performance opportunities.
Our campus includes a dedicated Music school in one wing of the main school building, with many individual and ensemble practice rooms, as well as a larger performance hall, a recording studio and academic music teaching rooms. Alongside this, our main school auditorium provides an inspirational performance space for major school concerts.
Music making is a central part of life at Harrow Bengaluru, providing exciting opportunities to every student.
Harrow School in the UK has a long-established and vibrant dramatic tradition, which has nurtured the talents of dramatists such as Terence Rattigan and Richard Curtis, as well as actors including Benedict Cumberbatch. Harrow Bengaluru provides similar opportunities to its students through a vibrant drama programme which explores a range of genres and social issues, at the same time as developing leadership, confidence, creativity and collaborative skills.
Drama is taught on the curriculum across the school, with all Middle School students following an introductory course before being able to study Drama and Theatre courses as an IGCSE option. Alongside this, an annual programme of whole-school productions will extend the most committed actors and technicians in the school, forming companies across houses and year groups.
With dedicated drama spaces within the main school building, as well as our state-of-the-art 800-seat performance auditorium, International Harrovians at Harrow Bengaluru will benefit not only from outstandingly qualified international drama teachers but also exceptional venues in which to perform.
In 1994, Harrow was invited to perform its annual production at The Globe, and became the first company to present a full-length Shakespeare play at the rebuilt venue. The play that year was The Taming of the Shrew– featuring Benedict Cumberbatch as the leading character, Petruchio.
This tradition of Shakespearian performance will be extended to Harrow Bengaluru, with Shakespeare productions built into the annual drama programme.
Dance provides a further opportunity for our students to nurture their talents and develop their creativity and confidence. It forms part of the Middle School curriculum, allowing International Harrovians at Bengaluru to experience and develop an understanding of multiple dance genres including ballet, tap, traditional Indian, folk, modern and street. Opportunities to choreograph their own performances further enhance our students’ leadership and creativity skills.
Alongside its part in the curriculum, dance will be a prominent feature of our clubs programme, giving older students the opportunity to maintain their engagement in this enjoyable art form, as well as allowing younger students to focus on particular varieties of dance.
Harrow's rich and varied art education develops students’ artistic interests, creativity and confidence through exploration, experimentation and a strong emphasis on drawing.
All students at Harrow Bengaluru study art in the Middle School and may select Art as one of their IGCSE and A level subject choices. At every stage, we introduce them to a range of two-dimensional and three-dimensional processes and techniques, giving them considerable independence to conceive their own work.
The Art School, which comprises over 180m2 of dedicated space and includes a kiln room to allow sculpture and ceramic design to flourish, is open seven days a week. This ensures that boarders and day students alike can enjoy their love of art outside of lesson time, as well as in it. Artists preparing for examinations are joined by those who like to work for personal pleasure, as well as teachers who make time to continue their own practice.
