CAS in Diploma Programme (DP) and Primary Years Programme (PYP)
This acronym stands for Creativity, Action, and Service. It is a mandatory part of the International Baccalaureate Curriculum offered by the school and encompasses a host of community and social service activities. Currently, the school is supporting; the Salam Orphanage in Tabanan, an elderly home in Gianyar, a non-profit organization for the disabled, Yayasan Peduli Kasih (YPK) and an organization called Smile. We raise funds to support these organizations in the form of food, clothing, medical treatment funds and education funds.
