GIRLS & YOUNG WOMEN'S GROUP

Ages 11+ (year 7+)

Thursday - 4.30pm - 6.30pm

The Girls Group have participated in many varied activities and opportunities that have promoted skills and confidence building as well as addressing issues and needs in a comfortable environment. This year has seen an increase in Partnership Working with other Centres in our cluster as well as taking part in Celebration Events as part of International Women’s Week, Health & Fitness Awareness. The group has also participated in a song and dance Project that culminated in a performance at The Sage Gateshead. The event was an opportunity for groups to celebrate the end of the Voices of the River’s Edge Programme.

As well as taking part in the event, the girls recorded a song to accompany a short film. It proved to be an excellent confidence and self-esteem building project.

The girls have also taken part in Drama, Music Productions and Fashion Shows all of which looked at improving confidence and awareness as well as providing a safe and friendly learning environment.
