In addition to a full academic programme, students are given the opportunity to experience a wide range of outdoor pursuits including kayaking, rock climbing, caving and hiking. The boys develop into young men who are independent, responsible and contributing members of society.
"Sending my boys to St Paul’s has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. I was especially satisfied with the result of the time my boys spent at Tihoi. It is a unique, well-designed programme for boys to learn life skills outside the classroom and how to contribute positively to others."
