A few weeks back I personally attended a graduation of teenagers
that had just finished a 1 week program called SuperCamp, where children which were
struggling to fit in, finding classes difficult, trying to work out what they
are good at or ok and just wanted to increase your grades attended.
Over this week they formed teams where individual children could
become closer to their team leaders and members, whilst being taught specific
methods to combat problems in everyday life. Do you think that such programs are important, consider there implications and affect they have?
Many of these methods can be used in many different situations.
The graduation showed the extent that the camp had on children's confidence and
the impact it would have on their lives and what they had accomplished. All the
children were sad to leave and it was of big importance to them.
