The 澳门图库资料 Service Learning vision is for our students to support local, national and international communities and make a difference to the lives of others.<\/p>\n

Students are fortunate to attend 澳门图库资料 and we believe our students should give their time, energy and skills to build a better future. Service Learning is not only about giving money and donations it is about investing time in helping those less fortunate than themselves and displaying a true sense of compassion towards others.<\/p>\n

During their time at the College our students will be exposed to different Service Learning opportunities in both the Junior and Senior Schools.<\/p>\n
