IB/CAS Proposal
Candidate Name: Enya Calibuso
Activity Project: Marumofase High School Limpopo
Date: 27 August 2014
Intro: I chose to continue volunteering in Marumofase High School
Limpopo because; I found working with the born-free generation extremely
rewarding. Being in my second year of IB Literature, I feel I have a lot more
knowledge in writing skills to assist the students in completing their short
stories and enhance their English skill to publish the book.
Targeted Learning Outcomes: I commit to working collaboratively with others to complete the Limpopo Book of
short stories on the born-free generation this year. I believe not only
collaboration between the AISJ students to plan and coordinate the meetings and
trips to and from Limpopo but also the cooperation of the Limpopo students is
necessary to produce a well thought out final product. Increasing my awareness of my strengths and areas for growth are
important in the areas of patience and one-on-one assistance/tutoring for those
who need extra help. In return, this will help me grow, as it is a life skill
necessary when collaborating with others. I will fine-tune my writing skills
and my verbal skills. I will gravitate in the strengths of the Limpopo and AISJ
students to allow me to develop their strengths. By enhancing my strengths, new skills will be developed, in all
areas: communication, collaboration, interaction, writing and tutoring.
This project would complete my Service
and Creativity sections of CAS.
Activity Description: This year our meetings at AISJ entail the
planning and preparation of the upcoming trip of Limpopo students to AISJ for
our Limpopo writing workshops. Topics that have and will be covered in out
meetings include: schedule for the publishing of the book, trips to and from
Limpopo to work together to complete the book, fundraising, college tours, and
guest speakers. I as a team member now have one year of experience, to share my
expertise, opinions, and ideas that will enhance and benefit the Limpopo
students and the creation of our book. As Communications Officer, I will assure
that each week a bulletin is put in the morning announcements to brief AISJ on
our Wednesday meetings; along with a Izindaba article at the end of each trip
to/from Limpopo.
End: This year I am looking forward to meeting the students once
again. I will carry a positive attitude, a will to assist, and a welcoming
smile to greet. Each Limpopo trip is an enriching learning experience for both
the AISJ and Limpopo students. We will come away with fond memories, shared
laughter, and expanded knowledge on both cultures.
Specific Schedule for Commitment: The AISJ students hold weekly meetings
every Wednesday during lunch to plan, prepare, and execute the tasks. A
preliminary date for the Limpopo students to visit AISJ to continue working on
our book is set for September, 19, 2014. Future trips are in the making.
