Understanding CAS 了解CAS

CAS, or Creativity, Activity, Service, is a core part of the IB Diploma. We speak to Ms Prachi Gupta, Y12-13 Learning Community Leader, about the importance of CAS.

CAS，即创造、行动与服务，是国际文凭课程的核心。我们与12-13年级学习社区领导Prachi Gupta女士探讨了CAS的重要性。

Please provide some background to the CAS fair.

请提供CAS活动的一些背景资料。

The CAS fair allows students to be connected with NGOs, fulfilling the “Service” side of CAS. While our CAS fair was originally open just to IBDP students, now we open it to the whole of Secondary so that all students can get involved with local charitable activities.

CAS活动为学生与非政府组织建立联系提供了机会，践行CAS中的“服务”。虽然我们的CAS活动最初只对国际文凭课程的学生开放，但是，现在我们将面向整个中学部，这样所有学生都可以参与当地的慈善活动。

What kind of organisations attended the fair this year?

今年有哪些组织参加了这个活动？

We had international and China-based charities attend our fair this year, including Dew Drops, Roots & Shoots, Educating Girls of Rural China, Migrant Children’s Foundation and Roundabout. Each charity gave a presentation on their activities, and we learned about some of the remarkable and life-changing work these organisations are doing. 

今年，国内和国际的慈善机构都参加了我们的活动，包括小水滴，根与芽，中国乡村女学生教育协会，民工子弟基金会和众爱。每个慈善机构都会介绍他们的活动，我们了解到这些组织正在做一些不同寻常能够改变人们生活的工作。

How does CAS complement our academic programme?

CAS如何支持我们的学术课程？

CAS enables our students to make connections with issues of global importance and become responsible individuals, which feeds into our endeavour to raise global citizens. It also teaches other important lessons such as empathy and kindness. 

CAS使我们的学生能够与全球重要事件产生联系并成为负责任的公民，这有助于实现我们致力于培养全球公民的目标。同时还教授其他重要的课程，如同理心和善良。

Are there any upcoming CAS activities we should know about?

近期会有新的CAS活动吗？

On the 16th and 17th November, some of our students will be taking part in a sponsored 30 hour famine. The project is designed to raise awareness of the worldwide hunger problem, and build empathy for those who go hungry every day. With events such as this, I think that the positive impact of CAS can be strongly felt in our school.

11月16日和17日，我们的一些学生将参加30小时饥荒活动。该活动旨在提高人们对于全球饥荒问题的认识，并与那些每天处于饥荒状态的人同情共感。通过这样的活动，我认为学生能够受到CAS的积极影响。
