Project Arnold! Background

Background Info on Project Arnold: 

For my long-term CAS project, I will be helping an upcoming local musician named Arnold along with two other people in my class-Karan and Eddy. Here is just a brief background on how we met Arnold and what we hope to achieve with him. 
On our school trip to Wobulenzi Town Academy in October 2013, I held a music workshop where students would write songs and perform them for the rest of the group. During the course of this activity, we took special notice of Arnold as he seemed to express a keen interest in music and on top of all that he is an extremely talented musician. He told us that his dream was to be a musician and record an album, he had already recorded one song with a fellow Ugandan musician but he wanted to do more songs on his own. We all decided that we wanted to help Anrold pursue this dream and wanted to continue the relationship with him after we left Wobulenzi.We thought we could really help him as Eddy and Karan are also into music and I could help with the fundraising aspects as well as just providing guidance. So once we got back to our own school, we kept in touch with Arnold and together we came to the goal that by the end of the two years of working with him, we wanted to produce a full album as well as arrange various performances in order to gain Arnold exposure. 

Throughout this project, the learning outcomes I will be targetting are: 

-Plan and Initiate Activities
-Work collaboratively with others
-Undertake New Challenges
-Develop New Skills
