Tower Team Building Initiative

This venture involves the building of various outdoor structures at every school and the incorporation of team building activities geared to develop and strengthen individual and group skills in communication, trust, cooperation, decision-making and problem solving. These age-appropriate activities, which are to be integrated in the Physical Education curriculum, will challenge both individual students and teams to think, plan, communicate and support one another. The achieved learning will not only enhance the skills embedded in the academic curriculum but will help develop leadership and communication skills and respect for individual differences, and will better prepare our children for the daily challenges of life and the journeys they will take in the future.
