School Life
Extra Curricular Activities
At Ritchies Primary School, we endeavour to create experiences and encourage activities that go beyond the academic development of our students. Many memories of an adult's school life do not surround a class or formal lesson, but an extra-curricular activity enjoyed. It is with this in mind, that we celebrate the successes of our students and infuse culturally and socially engaging activities that will form lifelong memories for our students. Our clubs and societies, school beauty projects, Career Expositions and Graduations are among annual events that are quite memorable for both staff and students.
