CREATIVITY ACTION SERVICE (CAS) AT SIS-PIK

EDUSHARE PROJECT in Karangasem, Bali
For our CAS Project, we chose to go to Bali with our fellow JC1 students and friends, He Wenhuang, Vincent Rumampouw and Philippe Nazareth Tarigan. We went to SLB Negeri 1 Karangasem to teach students with varied learning disabilities. We taught basic English and Maths. Aside from that, we have donated the books we have collected over a period of one month from the SIS-PIK community through our EDUSHARE program. Part of this project is also addressing environmental issues that are most prevalent in coastal areas – trash! We have engaged in a beach cleaning and interviewed the community members about their views regarding this problem and how they can help solve it. Much of our learning from this trip comes from an understanding of the capabilities of the people that are less privileged in life and education. We realised that despite their condition, they have a passion to learn and be a functional member of the community. Regarding environmental concern, most people, even with the availability of trash bins, are still unaware of the effects of throwing their household rubbish in improper areas. But we are happy to note that there are some concerned individuals in the community who care about the environment. The planning and organising of this trip enabled us to develop personal skills in communication, coordination and collaboration. Big thanks to Mr Edgar for supervising us in this project.
