COMENT

FOR ME THIS WORKSHOP HAVE THOUGHT ME A LOT. I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT I'M THE ONLY ONE WITH PROBLEMS BUT I HAVE LEARNT THAT THERE ARE PEAPLE WHO HAVE BIGGER PROBLEMS THAN ME AND THAT MADE ME WANNA HELP PEAPLE EVEN MORE. ITS NOT ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN GIVE BUT WHAT YOU CAN DO. SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO LISTEN WHEN PEAPLE ASK YOU TO LISTEN CAUSE THEY DON'T NEED YOUR ADVICE BUT SOMEONE TO TALK TO, YOU HAVE TO SHOW THAT YOU CARE BY PAYING ATTENTION.

Khulisa Training

Wow, what a fantastic week. 15 participants from Youthzones all over the country came to Pretoria and participated in a week of training and fun! Thabo, our 'master' trainer was fantastic in both content and personality. For me it was great to make friends and learn from everyone. We are all different and we are all the same.

The fact that we had 15 female participants was a highlight. Thabo said if people say 'I miss you' or 'when are you coming again?' you know that you…

COMMUNICATION.

I am calling upon all the youth-zone members that the reason for this side is to communicate with one and another so lets share everything not only advice each other but fell and have the desire to go what the next person is going through,as we are the communitie let the communitie be through us,let us be the guy or girl that when you in your communitie every kid says when i grow up i wana be like them
