Mr. Carmichael Moolchan. Teacher I, Belmont Boy’s R.C. Primary School. January 2020
“The Alive to the World Programme was introduced to the school in the year 2018. With the implementation of the programme, a significant change in the boys’ attitude towards their academics and extra-curricular activities was observed.
The Alive to the World Programme seeks to develop the child holistically through varied learning and teaching strategies. Under the instruction of Mr. De Gannes, students are actively engaged in group activities and sessions that enhance positive team building, communication skills and problem solving strategies applicable not only to the classroom but also to real life situations.
To conclude, I would like to restate my strong recommendation for this programme.”
ENDORSEMENT OF THE ALIVE TO THE WORLD PROGRAMME – Theresa Metzger (March 2023)
Good day everyone, I am Dr. Theresa Yorke Metzger and I want to say a few words endorsing the Alive to The World Programme.
Many adults complain that young people are disrespectful, impatient and unhelpful. They sometimes exhibit an attitude of entitlement, they do not get along well with others and the list continues.
Parents try to teach their children virtues and values but are not always successful. The young people of today are subjected to distractions that we did not have as children including cable TV, cellular phones and the Internet. Children, however, need the same virtues and values with which we were brought up but they could be taught in a way in a fun and enjoyable way. The Alive to the World Series helps us to do just that. Many parents want these things for their children but do not know how or their hours of work are very long.
I have been involved with this programme for several years. The parents and teachers of the students have seen the difference that this programme has made in their lives. They thoroughly enjoy our sessions which allow them to have fun. There is a decrease in the anger and impatience in the children.
