The school is a member of KFSAC ( Kuwait Foreign Schools Activities Conference). Students actively
participate in a variety of inter-school artistic, cultural, athletic and academic activities.

THE ESF WITHIN THE COMMUNITY

The English School Fahaheel is justifiably proud of its links with the community within which it achieves its academic success.

The school holds an annual “Charity Fayre” and directly supports humanitarian organisations such as:

  • Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity in the UK.
  • Kuwait Society for the Handicapped and is actively involved with the Kuwait Red Crescent Society
  • United Nations charities
  • Animal Welfare charities

Our students are also involved in various cultural activities, recitals, visits within the community and abroad, together with other inter-school activities. Students are taken on field trips during the academic year.
