OSC’s first-ever Media Open Day sets a new standard – opening its doors, hearts, and soul to the media

The event, held on the school’s lush Geoffrey Bawadesigned eco-premises, showcased the vibrant heart of OSC; its inclusive ethos, world-class curriculum, and deeply rooted values through an allencompassing student-led campus tour.

The morning began with a student-led campus tour, providing guests with a genuine glimpse into OSC’s unique learning environment. From state-of-theart science labs to creative makerspaces and collaborative learning zones, the tour revealed how OSC merges academic excellence with real-world relevance.
