SGA- Treasurer

SGA organizes something for every school event. As treasurer I will be in charge of funds and making sure that we have ample money in the budget to support all the events we plan. Meetings are on Wednesday at lunch.

SAISA Volleyball

Last week was the start of SAISA Volleyball 2014. Practices will be on Tuesday, Wednesday,Friday and Saturday. I'm really excited for the weeks to come and to see the team at the end of the 10 week season, I feel we have a lot of potential. Can't wait for October.

CAS Goals

My CAS goals this year relate to 3 thing. SAISA, SGA and The Mother Tongue Project.

In SAISA,

I want to win one of the 3 SAISA awards for both Volleyball and Basketball. For volleyball I want to win the Most Spirited Award, I'm going to achieve this by communicating and collaborating with my team effectively throughout all training sessions and games. For basketball I want to win the MVP award, which has always been a goal of mine since I started playing SAISA. This being my last year is my only shot. I want to show perseverance and develop a lot of new skills to make me a candidate for the award.

In SGA,

A goal of mine is to be a reliable treasurer. As one of the 5 main SGA positions I not only want to concentrate on my job as treasurer but also have an impact on the SGA as a whole. For this I will need to work well with Shanthi Haaze, who is my co-treasurer.

In The Mother Tongue Project,

The goal is to become fluent in Sinhalese, which is my technical mother tongue. As growing up I never learnt it and I hope having a year long commitment to this service will let me achieve this. Another goal of mine is to teach another kid as much Sinhalese as I can to make sure he/she doesn't end up like me :)
