CAS in the IB Diploma
Creativity, Activity and Service
The component’s three strands, often interwoven with particular activities, are characterised as follows:
Creativity—arts and other experiences that involve creative thinking
Activity—physical exertion contributing to a healthy lifestyle, complementing academic work elsewhere in the IB Diploma Programme
Service—an unpaid and voluntary exchange that has a learning benefit for the student.

I feel more confident in explaining my culture to other people.
I learnt how to effectively organise a group of people and plan together
It’s important to find a balance between setting boundaries and making it a fun experience
With each one I’ve seen improvements in my techniques
I was able to represent our perspective on a significant global issue
I’m spending my time doing something fun and productive
This experience has been really rewarding, enjoyable and an opportunity to start something I never had the time to do before
