The STRONG project
EXPLORE
For Young People lacking in confidence, dealing with social issues
and/or disengaging from school
In consultation with schools we design individually tailored programs to suit the needs of a specific group of students.
These programs focus on increasing the personal strengths of the participants and are delivered in small group settings with no more than 10 participants.
The programs run for the duration of a single term or across a number of terms with each session lasting for one 50-60 minute period.
Examples of current programs include:
Feeling STRONG – STRONG young women
This program focuses on building resilience, confidence and goal setting skills for young women.
Ideal for girls in years 7 – 10.
Arts practice used but not limited to – photography, drawing, painting & creative writing.
These programs begin with a focus on the self and slowly turn the lens outward to consider the individual's place in their school and home communities, then their wider community.
Creating STRONG young men
This program focuses on supporting young men to discover the qualities they, and society, value in good men – and what that means.
Arts practice outcomes can be, but are not limited to – a short film, a song, an exhibition.
This program involves outdoor work and physical exercise.
