The school year has just started for the 2010-2011 Diploma Program and it has proven itself to be quite a challege. An escape from the rigorous program is that of doing CAS(Community, Action, Service) such as DAWG, basketball, and an out of school service with another school. For DAWG we are currenty trying to raise fund for starilization for helpless dogs and cats around Colombo and collecting food items for the animals such as rice, dog/cat food and basic grains to keep the animals healthy. Overall i really enjoy doing this for I love being around animals, exspecially cat and dogs for all they need is a loving home and a healthsy diet and this is a real problem all around Colombo.
Every Saturday I take part in a basketball activity with helping students from OSC and occasionally other student from other school come to further their skills as a basketball player or just getting started. Basketball is my passion and i really enjoy helping these people better themselves as overall atheletes and basketball players. The part about this that i most enjoy is seeing the progression of the players and watching have a good time playing the sport that i also enjoy.
Also, once a month i will be attending an Orphanage/School with children from ages 2-12 in which my family and I will be buying school and other supplies for the children at the School. If all goes well, i plan on making regular monthly visits to the orphanage to build a good relationship with the people.
Also as the year has just started I have been participating in SGA(Student Goverment Association) organizing different types of event and socials for the student and community here at OSC. The most recent SGA ran event was that of the Homecoming Social/Dance. It was a success and alot of the people that attended said that they had a good time. We also do events along with the PTA, and we plan on having a successfull year for the SGA and helping OSC become a more enjoyable place for students and faculty over the course of the year.
