Planning ahead

We are now coming up to term break and it's time for all the grade 12s to really think ahead and see that they have their CAS folder under control.  Most students have planned activities to cover the breadth and width of CAS - now they just have to make sure they do them all.  Many students are also writing university applications and asking for teacher recommendations. If you have been involved in activities as part of CAS, it can be good to mention them in applications.  Think about what you have learnt and how that might be of use in the next step in your education.

Christmas Volunteers and bakers wanted

Each year, Emmanuel Church hosts a Christmas party for those who otherwise wouldn't have one.  They are looking for volunteers to help on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day.  Even if you can't be there in person it is possible to bake goods and leave them at the church on the 23rd December.  They are looking for saffron buns, cinnamon buns, small biscuits and ginger cakes.  The information is in Swedish but if you are interested in helping out, I can help you with translation - or ask someone else who speaks Swedish.  All goods are to home baked not bought.

The Annexe council has some plans for the traditional spirit week at SIS.  I won't spoil the surprise by writing about them here.
