You've Made a Difference
“This added value to my growth as a teacher, I have realised there is still a lot to learn. The expertise of the coaches was remarkable, and their energy was off the charts. I have realised the power and importance of encouraging my learners to perform and do better, This camp had a holistic approach, physical, mental and emotional development was noticed.”
“There was a mindset change with our learners, which I am unable to explain, their way of thinking is now different. This experience will be cemented in our learners’ minds because they never had this experience before, and Bridges made this possible.”
“This camp was life-changing for them in so many ways. I know that this experience was deeply inspiring for them which I am so grateful for. I always try to convey to my learners that the community they live in isn’t normal when compared to the rest of the world, and they should work hard to eventually get out of it. This camp was the best way to demonstrate what normality is, and what life they could have.”
“Ever since they went to camp behaviour has changed in a very good way, and teamworks skills have also improved”
“There have been positive changes in some of the learners, as they are more focused at school.”
“I can really see changes in some of the kids. I see one boy at school in Grade 5 that was always in the office. After he came back from the camp, he was a different kid, and we don’t see him in the principal’s office anymore.”
“The learners do not stop talking about the camp. Specifically, they refer to the fun activities, clean and safe environment, delicious abundance of food, and showers.
I know that these camps are life-changing experiences for many children, most of whom have never slept in their own bed, had a warm shower, or had access to multiple meals per day.
Forever grateful for you and the incredible work you and your team do at Bridges.”“For many of our learners, coming to Bridges is like a trip overseas – many of them have never left their own community.”
