The Challenges of Puberty
Teenage Camp 1

Putting children back in touch with what it is to be a child, and how to turn life into a fun game.

What we have discovered while working amongst the parents of children going through puberty, is that the parents' own puberty was one with very little guidance. In many cases they are either repeating the same patterns with their own children or are about to.

Where we can come in as a support to parents is to provide the children with a setting for them to experience their own value, potential and creativity.

Rosebud
"Too little is done to help children build the resilience they need
to cope when things go wrong."

For the age group of 12 to 15/16 we believe this is best done in a camp-type environment where we can teach the children in a very practical way:

  • To learn that they do have value;
  • Teach them how to think for themselves;
  • Guide them to realise that they do have the answers to their own lives;
  • Teach them about making choices and what the consequences of those choices could be;
  • Taking responsibility for those choices.

We have a sense of urgency based on the results we have experienced with other parents, so we would like to assist parents who want their children to benefit from what we have to offer now.

Our courses assume no prior knowledge or particular standard of education. We start with the basic principles and we move forward from there, always remembering that we need a firm foundation to succeed.
