Hola Mundo      

      Being a part of Student Government Association aka SGA was not that easy. Tough work I would say. We started our job with the 'Welcome back BBQ party' at OSC on the 21st of August. Our aim was to lend a hand to the PTA group to sell drinks during the party. I could not remember how much we benefit from the event, however, all the money went to school... (Service)

      Then we decided to organize another Welcome back dance party... with the theme black and white on the 4th September. The aim of the event was to earn money and donate to the Pakistan flood issue. (Service) My job was to help out the decoration in the auditorium, create a poster/tickets (Creativity) and took over the counter at the front gate. It was a lot of jobs for a rep but I managed finish them on time. As result, we earned about 250$ from the food and tickets which was not so bad at all for a school dance. 

The coming events are planned out:

• Spirit Day (Blue and White) on 24th September  --> Poster (Creativity)
  
• Halloween Dance on the 29? October --> Poster and Decoration (Creativity) 

 

Creativities - Actions & Services Goals 1210

Action:
I would like to focus more on sports. Participate in all possible SAISA and try the new sports that I have never done it before such as Volleyball which will be provide by Mr. Buskowski from August 2010.  

Creativity:
Learing how to play guitar is one of the goal I wish to make for this year. I would like to get my own guitar and start learning with a teacher, friend or by myself. Also, there will be drama school productions happening during the year, I would like to participate in anyway (Performer or Backstage crew).

Service:
Since there will be a lot of Community services going on these year, I would like to lend a hand to help in any possible way. (Helping to organize events(crew) ) Also, I am already one of the leader for DAWG (Dog Awearness Welfare Group), I would like to come up with a new goal i wish to achieve while participating for DAWG. To create a product and sell in order to raise more money for the community.

             These are just basic goals that i would like to achieve for the next 2 years. However, my goals are not unmodify, because later on, there might be some new things which I have not mention above that I would like to try.

Planned and initiated activities
Planning and initiation will often be in collaboration with others. It can be shown in activities that are part of larger projects, for example, ongoing school activities in the local community, as well as in small student-led activities.

Worked collaboratively with others
Collaboration can be shown in many different activities, such as team sports, playing music in a band, or helping in a kindergarten. At least one project involving collaboration and the integration of at least two of creativity, action and service, is required.

Shown perseverance and commitment in their activities
At a minimum, this implies attending regularly and accepting a share of the responsibility for dealing with problems that arise in the course of activities.

Engaged with issues of global importance
Students may be involved in international projects but there are many global issues that can be acted upon locally or nationally (for example concerns, caring for the elderly).

Considered the ethical implications of their actions
Ethical decisions arise in almost any CAS activity (for example, on the sports field, in musical composition, in relationships with others involved in service activities). Evidence of thinking about ethical issues can be shown in various ways, including journal entries and conversations with CAS advisers.

Developed new skills
As with new challenges, new shills may be shown in activities that the student has not previously undertaken, or in increase expertise in an established area.
