Looking at the society we live in today we have to wonder what sort of children are we raising. Proliferation of drugs, under age smoking, drinking, graffiti, kids being stabbed in school etc, etc.

Let's face it, as a kid you are told what to do, how to do it, and when. No-one has the time to deal with our kids issues. As parents we often don't have the time to spend really teaching our kids the life-skills they need. At school, teachers are wading waist deep in bureaucracy and state imposed politically correct standards that leave them without the time or clout to pass on the pearls of knowledge that could have a real, lasting impact on the children.

'Leaders are not born they are created'.

Whilst it is important to understand your reading, writing, and maths, isn't it just as important, if not more so today, to understand the difference between right and wrong? To understand how to take care of yourself physically, and mentally, to understand the benefits of good health and fitness, to know how to set goals and go after them so that you do not just spend your life shunting from a poor school career to an unfulfilled working life, to an early grave.

The RSDA LEADERSHIP PROGRAMME teaches children through allowing them to experience scenarios and activities which will naturally call on and develop such skills as:

  • Vision
  • Confidence
  • Motivation
  • Communication
  • Passion
  • Persistence
  • Action
  • Charisma
  • Creativity
  • Strategy
  • Courage
  • Trust

They find out the importance of setting their own goals and, perhaps, most importantly of all they find out WHY these things are important. Give a child a big enough WHY and they will walk through walls to achieve it.

As adults in this country we are experts at putting the world to right during our coffee break conversations but sooner or later we actually need to take some action to break this destructive circle our society finds itself in.

If not this, what? If not now, when? If not you, who?
