5. Life Camp (Independence)
For: Teenagers (Age 16 – 20)
At this age, Teenagers are finding their way in life. Most of them do not have a clue of what they want to do. Some find their way by tagging along with their peers, following their parents wishes and some even leave it to chance. With the amount of decisions to be made when they reach this stage in their lives, eg. Junior College or Polytechnic? Which Course to Apply? What do I want to do During National Service? Which University to go to? Is my partner The ONE? Seems trivial doesn’t it? Not a chance in this Universe. These Questions if answered wrongly and without proper Guidance, will affect your teen in ways we don’t want to know.
This camp will coach your Young Adult to make Choices! Every time we ask one of these teens, “What are your plans after secondary school?” The most common answer we get is, ” Go JC or Poly Lor.” The Next Question we always ask is, “What happens after that, What do you want to do after that or in life?” The Answer I get is, “I really don’t know Sir. How ah?” Sounds Funny? It is not! We vow to take these teens and coach them and help them realize their ultimate goal! What they truly want to do in life.
When: 17th – 19th Dec 2009.
Duration: 3 days. Parents are invited to join their teen for the grand finale to experience first hand, what their child has gone through for the past 3 days.
