Putting Our Youth to Work

We are part of the Take Our Kids to Work initiative, which allows Grade 9 students to spend the day in a workplace they would like to learn about and learn more about.

The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award

The Prize is a process, not a distinction. It is a path that young people take to develop themselves personally and socially. Through the activities, they learn from their new experiences and discover unsuspected potential and talents.

To win a prize, young people between the ages of 14 and 24 only have to achieve the goals they have set for themselves.

Science Fair

Every year, middle school students participate in the science competition at RDN. The winners of the school’s competition participate in the regional competition in April.

PGL Dictation

Each year, students in grades 7 and 8 participate in the PGL Dictation. The school final takes place in the spring. The winners of the dictation of each level participate in the National Grand Final in May.
