Jacqui & Martin Having feedback from young people, many want to be taught all about our world in its present form Where countries are, continents, what are the countries known for, currency and much more. This session will take a walk throughout the world map and also drop in how to travel there. It may lead to an adventure!! If you have a lot of knowledge in this subject we would love volunteers to come and talk about countries you have visited, or are from and how you travel. History v present time This is a very popular activity. Martin is one of those people who has a wealth of knowledge on many subjects. Martin brings in worksheets and talks to the YP about history, and brings it to its current time which makes it relevant to our YP. It is also led by YP in a way it can be easily diverted off the chosen subject and leads onto others conversations. Actively engaging and can lead to trips along the way. The session will begin with History v Present time and flow into The World Map

Global Perspectives is a gripping course that is both cross-curricular and skills-based and taps into the way learners of today enjoy learning, including teamwork, presentations and projects. The emphasis is on developing the ability to think critically about a range of global issues where there is always more than one point of view. Students use research, reasoning and questioning to gain this understanding and form their own judgements. It is an opportunity for enquiry into, and reflection on, key global issues from different perspectives: personal, local/national and global. The course is not about getting everybody to think identically; rather it is a matter of opening minds to the complexity of the world and of human thought and encouraging empathy for the diversity of human experience and feeling.

Stuart Stuart will be drawing on his personal experience of poetry and script writing to guide YP to use words in an expressive way. More information to add.
