During the last three weeks the cleft-palette service group has been procrastinating and contemplating different ways of spreading awareness about our cause. We have been attempting to correct the flaws we had during last year. We had been told by our CAS supervisor that we spent much more time on fundraising than we should have and much less time on peronsally engaging with the victims of the condition. This lead us to devise a new perspective on the issue. From now on we will spend time at the Lady Ridgeway hospital while making efforts to complete the sequel to Battle of the Bands which hopes to surpass the total funds that we made last year for the victims of cleft-palette.
In addition to the concert, we have initiated a new program where we will contact other schools in Sri Lanka via their respective interact societies. By doing this we will spread awareness about our cause and they will see it as an opportunity to help children in need by publicizing out cause.

Creativity - School production
This year I have decided to take part in the school production once again. This is not often something that year 2 DP students do because of the excessive workload. I decided that I would commit to this despite my busy schedule as it will be a semester long commitment where I will be able to engage in creative activities and rehearse on a regular basis to perfect my role.
In this year's play I have been faced with a more challenging role than last year as my character is a Swedish attorney and my teacher is very keen that I embrace the Swedish accent which is not a particularly easy task.
Also this gives me an opportunity to work with others like last year but since this play will only feature grade 10 students and above, it will be more mature and will be deal with more serious themes that will require more creative thought in terms of portraying the characters emotions.
As it is a group effort, I will get a chance to work collaboratively with others to accomplish something that any of us wouldn't be able to do as plain individuals.
