Fun & Creative
A series of hand-on, engaging workshops that use interactive activities to bring the fun to learning.
Youth Scotland have developed a range of interactive activity toolkits with 24 -26 fun activities for all ages. These activities can easily be included into plans for holiday programmes. The toolkits are designed to be run in out of school clubs, youth clubs, community groups, schools or at home. These can be incorporated into the Hi5 Award, which is an SQA externally quality assured award at SCQF Level 2.
