Maybe that's a bit extreme, but what's it like being 12, 46,or 72 years old in 2012? We've set ourselves the challenge of answering that question by asking people of a variety of ages to design on a postcard what it's like being the age that they are. There are three rules which are needed for this community art project to work:
1. The postcard must contain your correct age.
2. You must be honest. Don't say it's great being 22 if it's not. Equally, don't say you hate being 19 when you secretly love not having to go to school!
3. Be creative. Draw, write, glue, fold, cut, stick, tear- destroy the postcard if you have to!
What would your postcard look like?
On Wednesday 2nd May, Boost will be facilitating a pilot 'Prayer Space' at the Maidstone Road Campus of Felixstowe Academy.
The prayer space will be open to any students during lunch time, and will be a quiet, reflective space with a few interactive 'prayer stations' -simple activites to help young people engage with prayer.
Prayer spaces are currently present in a number of primary and secondary schools around the country.
Boost exists to help young people in Felixstowe live life to the full. We do all that we can to 'boost' young people's lives in as many ways as possible- educationally, emotionally, spiritually, physically, and environmentally, to help them achieve their potential.
