Peer Support Leaders’ Report

Working with the year seven boys couldn’t be much fun! We as the peer support leaders have a job, and that job is to support the year seven in any which way possible. The year sevens during camp were phenomenal, because they were listening, learning and being active learners. We helped the year sevens if they needed help, it was either we asked them or they asked us. We had as much fun as the year sevens did during camp as we also participated in the activities. The camp was based around having a go. Some people didn't want to participate in activities but due to the peers cheering each other on they all participated willingly. The year sevens and the peer support leaders learned different skills that can be used

    On my one and only vacation last summer, I got the privilege on going to my first Younglife camp. The camp name was Carolina Point in Brevard, North Carolina. At the camp they had many activities: swimming, go-carting, disc golf, mountain biking, zip-lining, paddling boarding, and hiking. My favorite part about this trip was the day we took a whole camp trip to hike the nearby mountain. At the camp they had some kids with disabilities that couldn’t necessarily get up the mountain by themselves.…

    As a consultant hired to improve the subsequent leadership at Foxconn, the primary concern would be to address and eliminate the sources of dissatisfaction amongst workers, arising from a combination of negative influences such as the poor working conditions, unethical treatment and rigid autocratic control.
