The subsidiary classes focus more on group work and class projects. Students work together to create newspapers, write and perform in theatrical plays, give presentations and make music videos.
Each project is tailored to the level of the class and designed to encourage students to communicate confidently. Projects take place over one or two weeks and are chosen by the class teacher. Prizes and certificates are handed out for the best projects.
In addition to projects, on the day before an excursion, students will learn about the city or attraction they will visit. This helps to give them background information to ensure they get the most out of each excursion. Often, students will be given assignments as homework when visiting a city, such as taking photographs, finding landmarks or writing about their day.
