Spirit Friday was celebrated\u00a0 on 25th February 2022, in lieu of the opening of regular school with the purpose of getting students to participate in fun activities together in order to build a sense of togetherness among students.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our school spirit is a powerful reflection of pride, achievement and determination and goes hand in hand with positivity which is a benchmark of a Beaconhouse holistic success. Our school spirit equates to a sense of community with students, parents and teachers working together with a common purpose. Students who are more engaged and connected to their communities are the ambassadors for the school and take their pride off-campus as well. Research indicates that students with higher levels of school spirit have greater aspirations for success. Creating a culture of spirit in the school can help students achieve later in life.<\/span><\/p>\n

From academic achievement to general happiness, there is a positive relationship to school spirit.
