Dare to be different




Dare to be different” is grounded in the belief, strength, tolerance and potential of young people.


It is the goal of “Dare to be different” to give schoolagers, the confidence to be their own person and to dare themselves to be the “best” from among the rest.

In this program, you will learn how to say “Yes” without feeling guilty, how to handle difficulties at daycare/home/school as well as how to treat others with respect and dignity.


Whether our schoolagers aspire to be a nurse, doctor, accountant, lawyer, technician, tradesperson or athlete, “
Dare to be different” will provide to schoolagers valuable information designed to develop and encourage a positive attitude and self-confidence as they pursue their career paths.



The program will be conducted at the individual day care or at specific locations.

It will include discussions, role playing, audiovisual resources, work-sheets, quiet and active times. The program will consist of 8 (eight) one hour sessions.
