2. Holiday Programme

The Holiday Academy exists to consolidate and build on the leadership training that takes place during the Saturday Academy.The curriculum incudes team-building, educational visits, fiscal management etc.
 

3. Mentoring Plus

The Academy uses a pool of professionals to encourage and stimulate the boys.The boys have regular opportunities to interact with special guests, local and national leaders and others of public interest.

The Family Support Network affords parents/ carers the
opportunity to maximize their participation in WYLA. There are ‘Family Meetings’ each month and parents/carers are expected to attend as part of the contractual agreement upon joining the Academy.
