W.A.V.E.
The W.A.V.E. (Winners with an Active Voice of Excellence) boys and girls club is a program for two age groups during the school year.
The 6 to 10 year old group has been participating in difference activities including the following:
The discussion sessions are geared towards helping children understand that they are of value, are loved and that they are here on earth for a special purpose. They learn that people are created different for a reason; they are also taught the value of accepting others who seem a little different than themselves. Other disscussion sessions focused on areas such as conflict resolution and lift principles.
The 11-16 year olds make up the older group. They have focused on themes such as:
All these sessions result in self awareness, increased self esteem and a greater appreciation for one's neighbour. The youth are given a safe environment to ask questions and explore thoughts and ideas. The discussion times are enjoyed by all and create stronger and more trusting relationships between volunteer and participants.
