Introduction:

A group of leaders are always great to work with. They normally have certain skills and a specific personality - therefore they have been identified as leaders. We will consult with the teacher in charge of the group beforehand to determine what the objectives (outcomes) of the camp must be. We will then provide him/her with a specific program that will attend to his/her needs. Activities: We will make use of the activities with emphasis on positive participation and leadership. We will for instance appoint a student as leader during an activity, and all the other students must be prepared to take over the leadership role at any time. This will force everyone to participate in the planning, listen to all options and to other participants insets during the planning, be active during execution and to know exactly how the activity must be executed. Some students may for instance be blindfolded, and his “friend” must lead him/her through an activity. This will force clear communication from the leader. Sessions in conference hall: Sometimes the teachers wants to conduct conference sessions with the group where they discuss for instance the school’s rules, disciplinary procedures and specific duties they need from the leaders etc. We will provide enough time for that in the itinerary if requested. We can also conduct leadership sessions where our professional facilitator handle specific subjects, for instance: - Leadership identification - Leaders makes a difference - The best leaders listen carefully - What type of leader are you You are welcome to provide us with specific subjects (outcomes) to be handled by the facilitator. White Water Rafting: A camp must be unforgettable, and what can be a better way to conclude a camp with a great adventurous White Water Rafting. The students love it and enjoy themselves tremendously. They will show the photos to everyone, as it will make their camp. This activity will bring them closer together - it will bond the group in a positive manner. Potjiekos competition: This is a great team activity. Some team members will do the poitjie while others are decorating the table. We provide all the raw ingredients. Our facilitators will be judges, and will announce the winning team.
