The Go-Green club is the most important club at Stonehill


At Stonehill International School there are many clubs and activities where students have the opportunity to learn a new skill or just have fun. The Go-Green club is one of those but it is more than just a club for us. I think that the Go-Green club is the most important club at Stonehill for the students for many reasons.

One reason is that the Go-Green club has been there for a long time, which means it has a history in which you can see how successful the club was due to its history. This is shown through all the different events the club has accomplished. For example the run for disabilities, which was last year, where almost all participants took part in and enjoyed it. Through things like that, the Go-Green club has been successful by including also people not just from the club but outside of the club, who just want to be involved partly.

The Go-Green club gives the opportunity to also have CAS credit, which is otherwise difficult to get elsewhere. The students help the club to continue with its success but they also benefit from the work they do by collecting the CAS credits required by the IB program.  For example last year there was an ice-lolly sale during lunch, when students bought ice-lollies to enjoy and the students selling them earned CAS credits for it.

It has been said that the Go-Green club is not fun and bores the students most of the time. Students also added that if they did not get CAS credits for the work they are doing they wouldn’t even have participated. However the Go-Green club is still the only club at Stonehill that does something involving more than fun, which is something useful for the school itself. They plant and recycle making the school have less trash and giving people a chance to do something with the recycled stuff, like bags for example that are made out of tetra packs, which are being collected by the M1 class and the Go-Green participants, partly.

The Go-Green club is the most important club at the Stonehill International School for many reasons. The club shows a history full of success, providing the students a chance of getting the needed CAS credits and still it is the only club at Stonehill, which does something environmentally good that the school eventually benefits from..
