A New Year Celebration Organized by Our Grade 11 IB Students
TAC’s grade 11 IB students organized a wonderful New Year celebration for the students, whom they tutor, from Hasan Karamehmet Primary School and for the students, to whom they make bookmobile visits, from Kanberhöyüğü Primary School.
The party preparations, which were undertaken by about 20 IB students, made our young visitors very happy. The IB students, who usually have a very tight schedule, attended to every detail when organizing the party: they baked, they did the decorations, they bought presents and they prepared the costumes, making another community activity a success. Their biggest reward was seeing the smiles on the faces of the children, who did not want to leave and wanted the activity to last longer.
We feel the pride and joy of seeing Tarsus American College students taking strong steps towards becoming compassionate global citizens through their involvement in such well-organized community service activities.
