At FIS, we believe that education does not just happen in the classroom – far from it. That is why extracurricular activities (ECAs) form an integral part of school life. They enable students to learn and grow. Some students develop their language skills, sporting prowess or artistic flair. Others discover new talents.
ECAs are created just for FIS students and are supervised by qualified professionals. Available from kindergarten all the way through to Terminale, these activities take place outside of teaching time, throughout the school year. And they are reasonably priced.
There is a wide range of activities to choose from, from sports and arts, through to the cultural and educational. We regularly monitor our extracurricular activities, reviewing them each year to ensure they are of consistently high quality.
As well as providing an opportunity to discover new interests, extracurricular activities encourage students from different year groups and streams to mix – all in one bilingual environment.
The activities available vary according to children’s age and campus. But whether they are into sports, art, languages or need help with their homework, there is bound to be something to suit. Below is a selection of the activities we offer:
We offer sports activities that can be enjoyed competitively or simply for pleasure.
Thanks to the efforts of our physical education teachers, secondary students can take part in various sports competitions organised by Hong Kong sports federations, in football, handball, basketball, fencing, rugby sevens, swimming, athletics and netball. These federations include HKSSF – Hong Kong School Sports Federation and the Hong Kong Junior Basketball League.
In addition, our athletes are sometimes invited to compete in meetings or matches organised in Hong Kong or abroad by AEFE or international schools, in swimming, rock climbing, football, volleyball, basketball and athletics.
You can register for ECAs online via the EDUKA Parent portal. For primary students, there are three registration periods a year (1 per term). Secondary student registration is at the beginning of each school year, once they have received their timetable.

Extracurricular activities for both primary and secondary take place during the week, just after classes end.
For primary students, a bus is available after ECAs on some days of the week, at no additional cost.
