Valentines disco

There was a Valentines disco on 14.2 in our school. It was because the 14.2 is a day when you show your love, feelings to people you like or love like friends or something more. We dont actually used to celebrate it few years ago but because of the western influence on the whole world we do celebrate it nowadays. In my previous school we also had discos on Valentines day, so it was fine for me to have one on Valentines day. This disco was however different to the ones that I have been on Valentines day. This was because this time I and my classmates were the ones organising it. We had divided the roles and I was in charge of preparing posters. I also however on the disco helped with the sandwiches and I also been helping in selling drinks and chips. I was also decorating the hall two hours before the actual disco took place. I think that the decoration was very well done and our schoolmates liked it as well. Some of my friends were in charge of music and were DJs. I liked their choice of music and I think that the others liked it as well, as the atmosphere was very nice and we all were having fun.

Although the aim of disco was not only to have fun and dance it was also to raise money for the guide dog.We are raising money for the dog to help with the training and to help blind people to get their well - trained dogs. We raised money on the disco in december and we raised some money on the Valentines disco as well. We did this by selling sandwiches,drinks,chips.We also raised money because it was an non-uniform day and everyperson that came without uniform had to pay some amount of money, this money therefore also went to the dog.Then we also made money because we prepared a valentines box. This box was for us, students, and teachers as well to write a love or a friend letter to someone which would be afterwards given to a person that you wrote it to.It was to be either anonymous or unanynomous so the person would be either surprised and curious or will thank you and be happy. I was helping with the creation of the Valentines card. Then I also helped when selling them. I think we did a pretty good job as a huge amount of people actually bought them.So we made people not only to spent money which we can afterwards donate to the guide dog but we also made them to be happy.

I think that everyone liked disco, and we raised lots of money so we were very successful. I completed this CAS objectives.

Increase awareness of my own strengths and areas for growth  as I have never been selling love cards or friend card, as well as have not been decorating hall for the Valentines day.


 Planned and initiated activities I helped organizing disco itself, and also the posters.


Worked collaboratively with others When decorating hall or when selling sandwiches,drinks and chips and chocolate


Considered the ethical implications of my actions  We were helping the guide dog.
