CIP - COMMUNITY IMPACT PROJECTS

Good Morning everyone!

Today for CIP we had a choice for what we want to do. The first choice was compost, In compost, you would have to grab all the rubbish from the compost heap since there is a lot of rubbish under the compost. So we had to make sure all that was gone since the rubbish wasn't going to go by itself if we tell it, we need the compost for the soil that we were going to use for our vegetable plants. the second choice was jam not to make but to make a poster about, we had to create a poster about the jam since we are selling it. The jam was going to be sold to staff and students it was going to be sold for 3 dollars which was a cheap price since it was nearly the same price ad jam at the supermarkets. In the posters, you had to mention what price they are you to also persuade so more people can buy it all the money will be going to the tools and soil we need. The last option was gardening that was the choice I had chosen, in gardening we had to go to the community garden and pick out the weeds we were told to pick out. Our hands got really dirty with dirt so afterward, we washed our hands of course, the day was really fun I was not there for the second period because I had other passions for the day apart from that the period was really fun.

Cool to be kind - radical rainbow mufti day

Last week for CIP in cool to be kind we started on a session for mufti day, On the day we needed to decide and plan what our theme was going to be. We had to get into groups of 2 to 4 in my group there were 4 people counting me. In our process of planning, we had to make sure our theme was based on a crazy kind of thing. My friends and I weren't the types of people that like to wear bright colors but we still went with simple kinds of things like bright colors. 

We thought black and white was a good theme since it would kind of be crazy in our mind with everything black and white. But of course, we always need a bit of color so we had no idea what to pick. A few moments after trying to plan we were called down to the mat and needed to share our idea's to see which one people liked the best. Some people mentioned neon clothing and other crazy stuff, in our group we came up with black and white as mentioned before, bright colors, pigtails, edgy. 

To make the theme sound more interesting we needed to come up with descriptive words the describe the theme. Some people came up with "Peculiar Pastel" or ""Crazy Hairstyles" at this time I was alone and my friends well the rest of the people in my group had left for their passions which were singing. In that time alone I had to come up with descriptive words for our ideas since I was alone I needed to join a group of two which made us a three.

 The idea that was voted on the most was "RADICAL RAINBOW" so it was agreed on and was finalized for the theme. The donations from the mufti day will be donated to Kids Can, they are a program or charity that provides the basics to children who need it the most. The reason why we are donating it to them is that they spread kindness and in our CIP our slogan is "It's Cool To Be Kind", I am not leaving any other charities because all charities spread kindness. 

We think it's best to do a mufti day to donate because you need to bring a gold coin to wear mufti if there is no gold coin then no mufti. The mufti day is on Thursday the 8th which is tomorrow I am relieved because we are able to just wear one color of the rainbow since I am not the kind of person who wears bright colors as said before. For the mufti day, there will be 8 people selected to collect the gold coins around the school for working hard in CIP. 

I am happy we are doing a mufti day to donate because it is nice knowing we are able to do something to help the people in need especially when they're kids. On that day we also created posters to spread the awareness of the mufti day.
Here is the poster-
