Christmas Disco

Christmas - probably one of the most important celebrations throughout the course of the year, practically for everyone, not excluding the BIS.The IB students were busy preparing for the disco, personally I helped with the Lolly Guess, Food stands, Santa hats and the performance to entertain the masses as well...

I was supposed to focus only on the Santa hats, my job was to complete a survey on how many people were to actually come to the disco, in order to count the number of snacks and hats to be provided, however I decided to go further and joined another group, which was in charge of the Lolly Guess. I helped the Lolly guess out by making posters and hanging them up around the school, as well as counting the number of sweets and buying some for the draw as well. This may not seem like a lot, but it definitely can count. During the disco me and some of my friends helped out with the food stands, selling the goods we purchased, as well as simply preparing the stands themselves. By working together in a team we have shown that we can work collaboratively with others, during the course of several weeks we planned and initiated our own activities, as well as undertaken new challenges along the way. The money we raised throughout the course of the week we gave to charity to help stray animals find a new home, so you could say that we considered the ethical implications of our actions.
During the disco itself we held a christmas karaoke, where we took the song of "V lesu rodilas elochka", a russian song, which was lead by the Russian students in our form, which does include me. This has increased our awareness of our weaknesses and strengths, for, personally, I cannot sing so I may want to improve.
This challenge proved to be fairly difficult, but it helped us to earn more than 20000 roubles and gain new experience.
