HOLIDAY PROGRAMME NUMBER 1.
The YMCA Cape Flats Holiday Programme, hosted at the beautiful Strandfontein Campsite, brought together young people for a week filled with learning, personal growth, recreation, and lasting memories.
Facilitated by the YMCA Cape Flats Diversion Team, in collaboration with the Youth Hub, participants engaged in interactive life skills sessions designed to empower, inspire, and equip them with the confidence and tools to make positive choices. These sessions encouraged meaningful discussions, self-reflection, teamwork, and the development of valuable life skills.
The week wasn’t only about learning—it was also about creating joyful experiences. From exciting soccer matches on the turf to refreshing swims at the campsite facilities, participants embraced every opportunity to connect, have fun, and build new friendships in a safe and supportive environment.
A sincere thank you to our dedicated Diversion Team, Youth Hub counsellors and facilitators, volunteers, and everyone who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make this programme a success. Most importantly, thank you to each young person who attended. Your enthusiasm, participation, and positive energy made this week one to remember.
At YMCA Cape Flats, we remain committed to empowering young people, strengthening communities, and creating spaces where every young person has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
Together, we continue building brighter futures—one young person at a time.
