CAS
CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service) is at the heart of ISH students' journey toward becoming well-rounded, compassionate, and globally-minded individuals. It is a core component of the IB Diploma Programme, encouraging students to engage in a wide range of activities that foster personal and social growth, while instilling a lifelong commitment to community involvement.
Creativity within CAS is all about exploration and innovation. Our students are encouraged to engage in creative endeavors that challenge their thinking and expand their horizons. Whether through visual and performing arts, music, writing, or designing community projects, creativity at ISH is about pushing boundaries, developing new skills, and expressing individual perspectives in ways that resonate with the world around them.
Activity in CAS is designed to promote physical well-being, teamwork, and perseverance. We believe that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial to personal development, and our students participate in a variety of sports, outdoor adventures, and fitness programs. These activities not only enhance physical health but also teach students the importance of discipline, goal-setting, and the joys of both individual and collective achievement.
Service represents our commitment to making a difference. At ISH, service is more than just volunteering—it’s about understanding the needs of others, taking initiative, and making meaningful contributions to society. Our students engage with local and global communities through projects that address social, environmental, and cultural issues. By participating in service activities, students develop empathy, leadership skills, and a deep understanding of their role as active global citizens.
CAS at ISH is a transformative experience. It’s where creativity meets action, and service becomes a way of life. Through CAS, our students discover their passions, overcome challenges, and contribute to a better world. It’s not just about fulfilling requirements; it’s about embracing a journey that shapes who they are and how they will impact the future.
