Extra-Curricular Activities

Academic & Intellectual
Tree Rings forms Square's educational programme, starting with the things children see around them and progressing to more distant, general, and abstract subjects. Each topic has layers that define the child's knowledge—from I am starting to I am an expert who can assist others. Square develops six basic competences: learning, trouble-shooting, communication, social and personal, civic, and working competences, all integrated into the programme. Small class groups let teachers tailor support to each pupil and build strong individual learning progress, while education is connected to real-world contexts so knowledge can be applied across disciplines.

Arts & Creative
The World of Arts provides practical and aesthetic perception of the world, including fine arts, dance, music, and theatre. The Academy of the Curious offers in-depth projects and interdisciplinary challenges, with small-group formats and individualized guidance. A broad range of clubs—covering languages and arts—is available each semester and can be joined at the start of the term. Examples of clubs include visual arts and music-oriented activities, with courses also addressing German, sewing, and other creative pursuits.

Cultural & Language
The World of English is taught from the first grade and English is used across integrated subjects, projects, and leisure activities to build strong language proficiency; the goal is for students to achieve a high level of English by secondary school, with native speakers sponsoring some projects. From the sixth grade, students choose a second foreign language to study. Square is part of the Consilium network within Dukes Education, which extends international opportunities and experiences for students, reinforcing language and cultural exposure across Europe and beyond.

Social & Hobbies
There is an after-school program called Družina, plus a School Club, which provide topics, teamwork, and extended English practice with native speakers. A wide range of clubs runs each semester, with enrollment open to students and offerings regularly updated based on student interest. Club topics include languages and the arts, with practical sessions for music, art, German, sewing, chess, and other activities to develop creativity and critical thinking.

Community & Service
Square participates in charitable projects each year, including partnerships with Believe Your Dreams and support for the Shoebox Project organized by Diaconia, as well as animal sponsorship by individual classes. The school collaborates with organizations such as Step by Step ČR and the European School Education Platform to broaden international engagement. Students are encouraged to develop empathy and kindness through Community service activities and events like Kindness Day and Odd Socks Day.

Leadership & Professional
Square Student Parliament actively involves students in school life, with representatives from grades 2–9 meeting regularly to discuss improvements and foster open communication among students, teachers, and management. The Parliament organizes events and projects that strengthen the school's social climate and contribute to the wider Prague 4 community, while developing competences useful in professional and personal life. This structures student leadership and service as core aspects of personal development.

Lifestyle & Wellbeing
The World in Motion builds a positive approach to movement and regular active rest as part of a healthy lifestyle. The school day runs from 8:30 a.m., with a morning club starting at 7:30 a.m. and an afternoon club operating until 6 p.m., supporting well-being and supervision. After-school programs (Družina) emphasize teamwork and opportunities to improve English through interaction with native speakers, contributing to a balanced, active lifestyle.
