We’re going ahead with our CAS activities

Hello. We would like to introduce our CAS experience. CAS stands for Creativity/Activity/Service, where students engage in experiential learning such as arts and other activities that involve creative thinking, physical activities, and/or volunteer work. The CAS experience we recently worked on was the creation of a piece of artwork that was made out of rubbish we collected during our beach cleaning activities. Recently, we exhibited our artwork at school to educate people about the environmental issues surrounding marine pollution. In the future, we would like to further explore the issues surrounding ocean pollution to develop new ways to educate people about this issue.
