During the last winter break, young people enjoyed a meaningful and diverse week, filled with creative crafting, digital games, and sports activities. The program, put together by youth workers, offered young people both fun and development opportunities in various fields.
The opening day of the week was dedicated to free-form activities and creative pursuits. Very diverse workshops were available in all centers. For example, in Anne and Anneke, a guest offered activities, with whom participants could craft yurt boxes, get a glimpse into Buryat customs, and taste their traditional pastries.
For those interested in the digital world, Wednesday was a real treat. A virtual game day took place in the youth centers for younger participants, where they could play Jackbox games. For older young people, an inter-center Fortnite tournament was planned. Additionally, VR glasses were available to try, bringing the gaming experience even closer.
The highlight of the week was Thursday's winter ball, which was almost entirely organized by the young people themselves. Various workshops took place during the ball, including face painting, karaoke, and Kahoot. Young people from the younger target group participated in a unicorn dance party, where children could simply have fun and learn interesting dance steps. Older young people could dress up in party attire to enjoy performances, the selection of a prince and princess, games, and a festive dance. The evening concluded with eating cake.
The week ended on a sporty note – both a self-defense workshop for young people and competitive games organized by youth workers took place in the halls of Forselius School. The day offered both competitive moments and enjoyable time together.
And so the winter break flew by. But let us remind you that exciting and developmental activities can be found daily at our centers – come and visit!
