→ The main reason for the formation of this cycling club was to increase awareness about the importance of cycling and maintaining physical fitness as well as mental fitness. The members of this group used to cycle their way to Dumas and then clean the beaches to decrease land pollution. I took part in it as it served as my CAS experience. So I grabbed my gear and decided to take part in it.
Lo – 1 Identify your strengths and develop areas for growth.
→ The main problem in this activity was to cycle 5-10 kilometers using a cycle in the early morning. Many people got tired early and we had to take a lot of intervals in our trip, but after a few days of cycling, we managed to build up our stamina and managed to reach the beach without any problems. We also had used a tracking app that tracked our entire trip to Dumas.
Lo-2 Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process
→ The main challenge for this activity was laziness for me as I had never done such exercise for so many days, mainly I felt lazy in doing so, but after seeing my friends going along and enjoying it I also decided to go along with them. After a few days my laziness was running away and now I liked cycling.
Lo – 3 Demonstrate how to initiate a CAS experience
→ We had created a schedule in which all the people participating in the cycling club were free. So a few selected days we would go to cycle in the morning and later go to clean the beaches. There was a lot of chaos in the beginning as a lot lesser people would show up in the morning, but after making a change in the time more people began to join the cycling club, and even after a month people wanted to join it for CAS purposes.
Lo – 4 Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experience
→ The main thing that made this cycling club successful was the commitment made by its members because cycling is an activity that requires dedication and commitment. Fortunately, all the people took it seriously and a lot of them showed up regularly. In the end, it all went well due to the members of the cycling club.
Lo – 6 Demonstrate engagement with issues of global significance
→The issue that we were facing was about the life on the water, a large amount of trash is thrown in the water bodies around the globe many famous YouTubers and NGOs are working to clean this trash. Thousands of marine animals die every day die due to this trash. So to help in this movement our school cycling club also decided to work on it by traveling to beaches and cleaning its trash.
Lo – 7 Recognize and consider the ethics of choices and actions
→ We had to make sure everyone was comfortable with cycling 10-20 kilometers in the morning because many times people could easily faint due to cycling this much at the temperature. So we decided to make sure everyone agreed to go to Dumas beach to clean it and we also listened to everyone’s opinions and make sure not force to make force anyone to travel if they don’t feel comfortable. As a result, we decided to make enough stops on our way to the beach so that no one feel tired.
