Community and Service Day is Back!

Today marked the return of Community and Service Day (CSD) for the 2017-18 school year.  CSD is a monthly event that seeks to have our students take ownership of our school and wider Lusaka community by working in service groups that seek to improve our school or connect with the wider community.  It is our hope that through the CSD experience, students will learn the importance of citizenship and taking an active role in promoting the health of one's community.  This year's groups include:  African Dance, Art on Campus, Brick by Brick, Community School Tutoring, Zambian Theatre Project, Feed the People, Green Team, GHO Appleseed Community Center, Sports in the Community, Student News Action, Swim with Tim, Community Rugby, Community Band, Community Basketball, Stories from Zambia, In and Out of the Ghetto, and PAWS.  Each group is sponsored by a staff member(s).  However, each group is led by one or more of our Diploma Programme students.  Groups consist of a mix of students in grades 6-12.  It was great to see so many of our neighboring community school primary students on campus working with AISL students as well as the efforts to bring vibrance to our school.  Thanks to everyone involved!
