Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS) is the heart of the school and provides our students with abundant opportunities to develop themselves and their passions through a broad spectrum of inter, extra and co-curricular activities. With its holistic approach, CAS is designed to strengthen and extend students’ personal and interpersonal learning.

CAS and the learner profile
CAS and the learner profile
The aim of all IB programmes is to develop internationally minded people who, recognising their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, help to create a better and more peaceful world.
IB learners strive to embody the attributes of the IB learner profile and CAS enables them to do this in real, authentic ways.
The IB learner profile represents 10 attributes valued by IB World Schools. We believe these attributes, and others like them, can help individuals and groups become responsible members of local, national and global communities.
