Red Flag Blitz!

I have taken a careful look at the folders this week and issued a lot of red flags.  What I have really focussed on is the CAS project. You will have received at a red flag if:

• you do not have a project
• you have started a project but it hasn't really gone anywhere
• you have done/are doing a project but there is not evidence to show the CAS stages
• you have completed a project but do not have enough evidence of the CAS stages.

The CAS stages document can be found in the pages of this blog - under 'links to documents'

You are only going to get busier now so it is important to get the project done!

Reflections

Take a look at some great reflections here.  Be inspired to make really good quality reflections that address the learning outcomes and show that you have really gained something from doing CAS.

Project Opportunity

I am involved with a group that works with refugees - mostly unaccompanied minors - and we are hoping to buy movie tickets for the young people for Christmas.  If you are interested in raising money for this it is a potential project.  I will be talking about it to the grade 11s in a week or so.  We will need around 5000kr by the beginning of December.

Other Opportunities

Film competition

Amnesty International has a film competition called 'Angeläget'.  The theme is Human Rights (human rights are defined according to the 30 articles in the United Nations declaration of human rights)

• Films should be - max. 8 minutes long
• You should be under 20 to participate
• You have to sign an agreement that they can use your film. 

You can find all the regulations and some sample films from previous years on the Amnesty Page. The deadline is December the 16th. All the details are in Swedish so if you need help ask a Swedish friend or come and see me.
