CTC Youth Crew November Calendar

CTC Safer Communities Program/CTC Youth Crew’s November Calendar is here. Please note a few changes and some exciting new activities on offer.

NEW NAME:
We are rebranding ourselves as CTC Youth Crew in an effort to try and entice a few older participants to get involved. We received feedback from some young people who told us that “Safer Communities Program” sounded like a neighbourhood watch group, so we’ve tried to youth-ify ourselves a bit more with a fresher, hipper name. Please refer to us as this when telling clients about our program and upcoming events.

NEW ACTIVITIES:
This month we have a couple of new things happening including a Dress For the Job Interview Session on Tuesday, November 9 where we will be taking the Get Set For Work young people and any other young people who want to attend to the op shops to get suited up with appropriate clothing for new jobs and jobs interviews before we hold mock interviews with them in the Get Set For Work room at CTC Youth and Family Services, Kingaroy.

We are also trying something different with a Special Effects Makeup Class on Tuesday, November 22 where the participants will be learning how to apply realistic cuts, bullet holes, grazes and bruises with an industry professional.

We will also be hosting the Kingaroy, Wondai and Cherbourg Youth Crew Arvos once a week now with more of an emphasis on a specific activity each afternoon. Any suggestions for things we can make, learn, create together would be appreciated.

Please note the next BYTE Night at the Murgon Pool is taking place on Saturday, November 19 from 4-7pm.

We are also very keen to get as many teens and parents to our upcoming ThinkUKnow Cyber Safety session on Wednesday, November 23 from 5.30-7pm as possible. There will be some really vital information for everyone who is worried about their young people online to hear as well as some practical information and technology they can put in place now to limit some of the present dangers.

Lastly, we will be co-hosting a fun movie night at yourtown on Thursday, November 24 for young people to come, chill out with friends, enjoy some popcorn, pizzas and ice cream and enjoy a (relatively) recent movie so if you have suggestions for a good movie for 12-24-year-olds please let me know.

Please let me know if you’d like me to send you any of our event posters. I’ve attached the ThinkUKnow parents’ session poster along with the November calendar.
