IB - Creativity, Action, Service (CAS)
International Baccalaureate students must, besides following their regular classes, also participate in additional projects during their last year. One of the projects is the CAS – Creativity, Action, Service.
Equally divided the students must spend 150 hours on the three components.
Are you an IB student looking for a CAS activity? At Sea Sail Training can help out! As IB student you can join the Tall Ships at sea for the Action part of the project. Or we can help out organizing a mix of two components.
Alone or together with your class we can organize a project. An example of a project could be an International Exchange Program. An International Exchange is organized by the participants themselves and aims to unite as many nationalities as possible. On a ship with 36 trainee for example, this could mean a project with 6 English, 5 Dutch, 5 Danish, 5 German, 5 Norwegian, 5
Another idea whereby the service element of the program gets highlighted would be that the students organize a sailing trip for their own class, combined with handicapped youngsters or youngsters from a different social background. The students organize the sailing trip, try to get funding and look for youngsters with a different background to complete the team. On board you will sail the ship together and become a team.
Please do not hesitate to contact us when you are interested in a great adventure at sea and/or would like to join the Tall Ships' Races during your summer holiday with your friends?! Together with At Sea Sail Training you can make it happen!
Are you a CAS coordinator and you would like to know more about the projects we organize and what we could do for your students or school, please contact us by phone: +31 20 6 88 04 62 or email: info@seasailtraining.com.

The gloomy mood of our first mile on the way to `The Battle of DrakeŽ is suddenly interrupted when Klaas yells out `Whale off the starboard bow!”
All the crew reacts promptly and even de masts bend over to starboard to see what’s going on. The goodbye-to-Antarctica sadness prompts everybody to feast their eyes on this last antarctic treat.
Somebody somewhere must have thrown a small fortune in the whale-machine. We get to see four whales playing together in a quarter of a mile circle around Europa. Every lack of a diving whale tail in any camera is made good.
The four are toying with us: disappearing and surface right next to our ship, swim under the ship from port to starboard, wave a white fin at us, demonstrate skills in backstroke… Antarctica does not let us go yet.
A ship full of people applauds the whale-show and is two bits less sad for the moment.
