Since the start of Ready 4 Life Back 2 School in the beginning of February 2008 things are starting to get shape!
Starting with 4 kids the group has now grown to 14 kids in the ages from 5-14 years. And the first successes have been booked; already 3 kids have been placed back into school and are following normal classes!! What an achievement for such a short period!
As most of these kids have not attended school for some time, some even for years it comes with many challenges. Most kids have difficulty with structure, social skills and concentration and this makes education sometimes difficult. Also the materials and the classroom needs a lot of attention; tables, chairs, books and educational material are really needed to cater for the different levels these kids are at.
Especially teachers, remedial teachers or volunteers with experience with working with kids with behavioural problems are much needed, so don't hesitate if you are up for this great challenge that will change the future for some of these children!
