Community hours encourage students to develop awareness and understanding of civic responsibility and give students opportunities to make valuable contributions to their communities. When students are involved in their communities, they can:
- Develop transferable skills and explore different sectors and potential career opportunities as well as deepening their understanding of their role in society
- Prepare for work and civic life in a globalized, digital age
- Develop skills and experiences gained to become successful and contributing members of society now and in the future
