Nayara's CAS Journey | My extra-curricular activities at OSC

Rainy Research – DP Science Trip🌳

The Group 4 science trip is a requirement by the IB, in other words, there is no way out of it. Okay that sounds bad, I’m sorry and I was kidding. The trip is a nice requirement, and even though it was wet and damp and we were in full on leech territory, I learned…

Service Update, Reflection & 2024 Goals🧁

Service Update, Reflection & 2024 Goals Okay so I was looking at my CAS blog and realized that a lot of it has been about football (my activity), and I have not given a service update in … well since the first post. Since 2023, and the first semester of school is coming to an…

An Inspiration? As well as Starting the SAISA Season✨

An Inspiration: As the SAISA season is starting, I will no longer be able to continue doing the Kickerz sessions on Saturdays. This post is coming in quite late, I know, but that last session really meant a lot more to me than I thought it would’ve. As we were playing a game to end…

Football w/ Middle School Girls🥅

As the SAISA girls football season is fast approaching, my friend and I (we were captains of the football team last year) wanted to take some time and coach the middle school and MYP 4 girls. This season we really want to do everything we can to place in the top 3, and that definitely…

Unity & Diversity Day 2023 🌍

On October 6th, OSC celebrated its annual Unity & Diversity Day. Each student gets to dress up in their national attire and represent their country, as well as eat a ton of delicious food from all over the world (a multicultural buffet prepared by the parents). I always say I only come to Unity &…

Service Goals & Service Update🎀

For service, we have started a bunch of different small projects. We’ve made an Instagram account (@oscjusticeandequality) that I now manage. I’ve made a goal to constantly update the page every Thursday (as well as during the week when there are news/inspiring posts from other accounts). We also made sanitary boxes for all the girls…

In Need of Elder Female Footballers⚽

Last week I went to the Kickerz Girls Session. It was interesting, to say the least. I had been to their football sessions before, however, that is when they didn’t have a separate girls division (which by the way is something I strongly encouraged them to do). Having been the only girl for the sessions…

DP Orientation – rapidly down the rapids !!🚣🏽‍♀️

For DP orientation we went to Borderlands in Kithulgala, Sri Lanka. This trip was quite enjoyable and allowed me to bond a lot with classmates I don’t really know a lot about. Thus, it was definitely a trip where I made some new friends, re-connected with some old ones, and overall just had a good…

My CAS Goals!!🎯

Creativity: I’ve always wanted to try and do Model UN (MUN). My goal in it will be to improve and develop my leadership, research, writing, public speaking and problem solving skills. Additionally, whilst doing all that, MUN will also help me in my Global Politics class as I learn skills of negotiation, conflict resolution and…
