IBDP CAS Activity

As an IB school, the vision of Cambridge aligns with the program’s mission, “to create a better world through education.” As a testimony to this notion, our students demonstrated maturity, confidence and initiative inspired to contribute to a world that needs them. They have adopted a local park which was desolate and unkempt. With their drive to support the cause of environmental concerns and community safety, they have planned to beautify it. With the intention of service to mankind, this abandoned place will gradually turn into an arena for all, be it young or the old. 
The Baccalaureates are content with the thought of giving to the society and opine that 
"It sounded like a big challenge at first, but we were ready to pull up our socks and do it for a noble cause."
