CREATIVE DRAMA
On 11 April, 2014, GKV CemilAlevli students, along with students from the secondary
school Drama Club, presented a brilliant performance of Harry Potter: The Sorcerer’s
Stone. Many parents were in attendance, along with teachers and administrators. Due
to the excellent cooperation between the two departments and the hard work of our
teachers and students who participated, there was a lot of enthusiasm for the project.
CemilAlevli students spent 40 CAS hours and provided all the technical support,
including sound and lighting effects, stage decorations, costumes, props, script
modifications, and English speaking coaching. Some of them even had small parts in the
play. The end result was an entertaining and praiseworthy performance. Additionally,
the aim of the CAS portion of the project was met by encouraging students to work
collaboratively, undertake new challenges, and develop new skills.- CAS Coordinator,

PERSONAL REFLECTION ON HARRY POTTER CAS
ACTIVITIY
FACT FILE~ Turkey’s official name
is the Republic of Turkey.
It has been 6 months since we first met with Middle School Drama Club
kids and I remember the day that we first started to work together. Time
went on very quickly and during that time we got close to each other.
Each of them is very friendly and sincere. The day we were going to
present our theatre came and as usual we all were very excited and a bit
apprehensive. After the theatre finished all faces were smiling and at the
same time I could see that everyone was crying a bit inside just because
we won’t work together again. I can say that it was literally the best
activity that I have taken part in until now. - MUSTAFA ERBAĞCI C/9-A
TREE PLANTING
Trees are nature’s wonders. I cannot imagine life without oxygen. The plant world, animal world- in fact, the whole
world, cannot live without oxygen. Carbon Dioxide makes our atmosphere and our environment poisonous for us. Trees
expend this carbon dioxide and make oxygen and thereby make our environment safe for us. Trees help to reduce soil
erosion and also help with water conservation. Trees increase biodiversity and provide habitat for wildlife. Trees filter
pollution from the air, help recycle water, prevent soil loss, make food for humans and wildlife. – Ilayda Dayioglu
