CAS Reflection #2 Special Olympics
This service has made me take responsibility in various unexpected ways. Firstly, I have to be constantly ensuring that my partner is pushing themselves in their running but not to the extent where they feel uncomfortable, this I was expecting. The area which was unexpected was the planning involved in running. The route we take…
CAS Reflection #1 Special Olympics
For the last term of CAS, I have decided to participate in service outside of school called Special Olympics. In this service, we get paired up with individuals with a mental disability and run with them around different places in Singapore. I think that the similar service Yoga with MINDS opened my own mind to…
CAS Reflection #1 Culturama
For season 1, I have decided to participate in the Culturama showcase, dancing for Tanzania. I have done Culturama in grade 10 dancing for Spain and enjoyed it a lot but I think this year will be a very different experience as I am dancing for such a foreign country. From media, Spanish class, and…
CAS Reflection #2 Culturama
This term I took part in the Culturama showcase, performing a Tanzanian dance. This activity was truly a challenge unlike any other I have done in IB. Firstly, I am not a dancer, and the choreography felt very advanced. I had to step out of my comfort zone and quickly pick up foreign skills for…

CAS Reflection #1 Volleyball coaching
This season I am taking part in a completely new activity, though in the same area. I’ve done volleyball for about four years now but I’ve never before had the chance to teach others how to play. The activity involves teaching skills, giving feedback, guiding and leading activities. It really is great fun because it…
CAS Reflection #2 Pottery
I am about midway through my pottery activity and I have enjoyed it as much as I thought I would. We have total freedom to do any project that we want which is great but also makes it a lot more difficult to choose. There is something about having lots of choices that makes actually…
CAS #4 Reflection Yoga With Minds
Finally, we got permission to meet our service partners and do the yoga activity with them. It has not been what I expected, to say the least. My expectations were that we would be doing yoga alongside our partners and give them tips from time to time, but it has been a lot more hands….
CAS Reflection #1 Volleyball Club
This term I am continuing to play volleyball but for this activity, it will be pure training rather than playing for a team. I will not need to focus as much on the team as a whole but on myself as a player and my skills. The main goal of this activity will be to…
