Our plan to facilitate young people to lead positive change in there communities is taking shape💛
During our YUMP session with high school students yesterday at Tieng’re , our social works team explored the topic of goal setting with form form 3 and 4’s, and the topic of taking responsibility with form 1 and 2’s.

Personal development is an ongoing journey that involves setting goals, building resilience, and maintaining a positive mindset✨.

When students were anticipating a half-term break When students were anticipating a half-term break and returning home to their parents, the Wanjigi boys decide to seek happiness from within🥰. 
They prioritised personal growth and fun times with Better Me Team✨. 

YUMP session at @pwahigh was designed to teach the boys about teamwork, empathy, and fellowship. Team Building activities were also included in the session to educate boys on the benefits of participation and working as a team. Not to leave out Entertainment 🎤which was also essential in keeping the boys energised throughout the activity. 

THIS IS WHAT THEY WOULD CHOOSE ALL TIME💛🤩.
