What's next?

Congratulations grade 11 - everyone has a green flag this term.  A few people made some last minute additions to their CAS portfolios leading to green flags in these reports.

Next term it will be impossible to get a green flag at the last minute.

In order to make sure that your CAS portfolio is satisfactory you must start uploading evidence/reflections on an ongoing basis.

You must also show that you have been part of at least ONE CAS project and that means that you must show that you have followed the CAS stages:

Investigation; preparation, action, demonstration and reflection.  

We will talk more about this at the beginning of next term.
We will also go over how to do good, meaningful reflections.

Amnesty International Group

The Amnesty group has been campaigning for the rights of a Malaysian cartoonist through drawing their own cartoons and posting them under #zunar.  Here are some of the pictures they have posted on the wall in school.  You can read more about Zunar's situation at: zunar



Volunteering opportunities

Just now there are a lot of opportunities for people who speak Swedish to help refugees with improving their language skills.  See http://www.volontarbyran.org/ for details or ask me. 

If you are good at art, once again an organisation  called 'Untold Stories' that works with human rights in Africa is looking for people to illustrate. 
'We are looking for illustrators who are skilled at drawing in digital or traditional media. You should be able to draw a picture that illustrates what is being told in an article or an interview.'

Otherwise enjoy your break and don't forget to keep documenting your CAS experiences.  No one attempted last week's quiz so it is still open.  See the last blog post for the details.
