This year, the MUN conference was held at Wells International School Onnut, and I, along with 3 other friends(as members of IT Club), had the chance to help out students from other schools with any tech-related issues on MUN. More or less 500 people were present at the conference, and about 700+ devices to manage. Some of the schools that were present were KIS, ICS, EIS, and more. We did various tasks such as helping students connect with the Wifi, handling the opening ceremony, and ensuring the connection was working properly. Thus, we also had to help with the large Wifi routers' set-up and clean-up. On top of that, our job was also to keep all the guests and visitors within the area, essentially acting as security and making sure everyone was in bounds and safe.
CAS Outcomes

2: Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process
5: Demonstrate the skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively
7: Recognise and consider the ethics of choices and actions
I went to the Wells Chonburi Campus to help set up for Sports Day, which was a physically demanding but rewarding experience. The weather was extremely hot, making it even harder to set up. Over there, I had set up the tents, arranging the scoreboards, and organizing the snacks stall, and made sure everything was in order when the rest of the high school came in tomorrow. Despite the heat, working as a team made the process efficient and effortless. Setting up the tents had required teamwork to secure them in properly to the ground, while arranging and hooking in the scoreboards ensured that all scores would be tracked without a problem. However, the most important and the most tiring task of them all was setting up the snack shop. I had to carry crates and crates of Oishi, dump in the ice into the coolers, and stock everything for the next day. By the end of the set up though, I had felt good inside because I knew that my efforts helped create a successful and enjoyable sports day for everyone.
