The Challenge Network - 2012:
The Challenge Network is a national charity; we are the largest provider of the National Citizens Service and are supported by The Department for Education.
The Challenge is an exciting summer programme for Year 11 students which inspires young people to make a difference. It is a fantastic opportunity for your child to meet new people, develop their CVs and gather skills for sixth form, university or future employment.
Teams of diverse 16 year olds take on an intensive, primarily residential, three week programme that includes physical, creative and social action challenges. This culminates in the teams designing and running their own projects.
The Challenge programme costs a total of £1,500 per participant; however the majority of this is covered with the support of partners and government funding. The Challenge Network asks parents for a maximum contribution of £50, with a discounted price of £35 if the payment is made before Tuesday 6th March. We do also offer a number of bursaries and alternative payment methods to ensure that cost is not a barrier for any young person.
The Challenge will be presenting at an assembly at Walkden High School on 14//2/12. For more information, please contact Louisa Hopkins on 07785627451, or email louisa.hopkins@the-challenge.org.
Alternatively please do visit our website at: www.the-challenge.org
We look forward to hearing from you.
