Creativity, Activity and Service (CAS) is one of the core curriculums of IB program. At SIPFLS we provide various clubs for students to broaden their horizons and become more well rounded young people. Besides existing clubs, some new clubs were created in this term.

 

 

新增的模拟联合国社团（MUN）由MUN亚太区负责人王正老师（Kamal）负责。MUN每周都会有精彩而又烧脑的专业训练，加入MUN社团的同学将会在11月份前往瑞士日内瓦参加全球性MUN大赛。

新成立的剪纸社团同样也十分热门，该社团由VA老师亲自带领。剪纸社团在帮助学生们学习中国传统剪纸文化的同时，也有助于他们发挥自主创新能力。

 

 

摄影社团作为一个有影响力的“老”社团，将继续以理论和实践相结合的方式来锻炼学生的摄影能力。通过一段时间的训练，“小摄影师”们的摄影水平大大提高，同时他们也为IB的一些活动记录下了很多精彩瞬间。

 

The new Model United Nations Society (MUN) was founded and led by Dr. Kamal, head of MUN Asia Pacific. Club members will travel to Geneva, Switzerland, in November for the global MUN competition, which features exciting and timulating professional training thoughout the week. The new Paper-cut society is also very popular, led by VA teachers. Students learn the traditional Chinese paper-cutting and  have an opportunity to show their creativity with their own innovative designs. The Photography siciety will continue to improve photography skills with a combination of theoretical learning and practice, and they have also recorded exciting moments for many of important events of IB department.

 

 

 

在原有的篮球、羽毛球、足球社团的基础上，今年增加了瑜伽、棒球、攀岩等新体育运动。这些社团都由专业的老师在专业的场地对学生进行训练指导。这些新的体育项目大大激发了学生对于运动的热情。运动社团在帮助学生提高运动体能的同时，也让他们对于体育项目的规则技巧有了更深入的了解和学习。

 

 

 

On the basis of the original Basketball, Badminton and Football societies, this year the sports community has added new clubs such as Yoga, Baseball and Rock climbing societies. These clubs are trained by professional teachers in professional venues. These new sports have greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of students for sports. While improving physical fitness, students also gain a deeper study of the rules and skills of sports.

 

 

本学期，动物保护、义卖和环保回收社团在做好原有活动的同时也有所创新。动物保护社团在苏州市小动物保护志愿者协会负责人之一 Marie老师的带领下，在校园内学习制作流浪猫收养海报、猫粮及猫咪玩具。环保社团继续负责校园废纸、塑料瓶的回收，同时也大力宣传垃圾分类理念。今年他们还会将回收点进行创意改造。而义卖社团也增加了他们的义卖筹款目标，除了原有的每年筹款2000元捐助贵州的2位学生外，今年他们还计划通过义卖筹得1000元，善款主要用于植树和救助重疾儿童。

新学期开始，每位同学就已经根据自己的兴趣爱好选好了两项社团活动，社团成员之间通过一个多月的认识磨合，合作意识有了很大的提升。此外，社团活动也正在从计划走向实施。

 

Till now, each student according to their own interests and hobbies, has chosen two clubs. Club members and club activities are gradually from the plan to the implementation stage.
