CAS is one of the core elements of the IB Diploma and is required for anyone doing the IB Diploma, but everyone is welcome to participate! It is a great way to develop skills and broaden experiences. The goal of CAS is to encourage students to push their boundaries and take risks through investigation, planning, action and reflection.
Over the past years, BeBe students have participated in a wide variety of CAS activities, a few of which we list here below. Some activities would fit into more than one category!
