Co-Curriculars
The students at Royal SCITS Academy experience a diverse range of co-curricular activities. These activities give them the opportunity to pursue their passion and bond as a community. We offer several options as co-curriculars to enable students to be directly involved in designing their own educational path. Some of the activities that we offer are:
Arts
The arts are a vital part of our education system. We believe that arts broadens the perspective of students’ learning and gives them an insight into global cultural heritage along with a creative sense of accomplishment. At Royal SCITS Academy, as part of the arts program, we offer Music (Instrumental & Vocals), Band, Choir, Theater, Visual Arts, Film and Photography. Our auditorium is well known in Sarnia and we host plenty of performance based activities there.
Sports & Athletics
Sports and athletics not only keep our students active and healthy, they also teach them to be patient and hopeful. It promotes team spirit and a positive attitude. Organization, time management and punctuality are a few qualities that are imprinted into students through sports. At Royal SCITS academy students can choose to be a part of Badminton, Basketball, Baseball, Cross Country, Football, Golf, Rugby, Soccer, Tennis, Track and Field, Triathlon, Volleyball, Swimming and Wrestling. Students can also skate and play hockey across the school arena.
Experiential Learning
Learning through experiments and reflections is what we call Experiential Learning. Through this program, students are able to take a hands-on approach to learning through simulation, volunteering, shadowing, research, social and clinical experiments, and much more.
Student Exchange Program
Cross cultural learning programs allow students to step out of their comfort zone and explore educational and career possibilities that may seem new. Exchange programs can be transformative, informative and adventurous for students. They learn to be self-sufficient and independent.
Student Internship Program
Internship programs act as a platform for students to deep dive into their choice of career before they step into university. These programs shed light into how organizations and departments work. They get a chance to apply their knowledge and experience real work life.
After School Activities
We offer after school activities in Sports and arts for students who are interested in pursuing their passion professionally.
STEAM
STEM education is an integral part of learning at the Royal SCITS Academy. It lets the students think of endless creative ideas, and explore the magical world of limitless technological possibilities. Students develop an understanding and appreciation of each of the core subjects of mathematics (calculus, trigonometry, etc), science, engineering and technology through STEAM. It supports application-based learning and gives them an insight into engineering design and innovation.

Clubs
Students have various opportunities to explore their interests and talents. Clubs allow students to acquire and refine skills that they may not otherwise have the opportunity or time to do during curriculum studies. It also presents an opportunity for leadership development and a respite from academics.
