Working with Young People
Opportunities for Children and Young People
Here at the YMCA-YWCA we delivery lots of opportunities for children and young people.
The Brightside Bunch
This is our youth club on a Thursday evening during term time for young people P5+.
Lots of fun and games. It’s very popular and places need to be booked in advance at the start of each term.
Here’s some of the activities from January – March to just give you an idea of what’s on offer: obstacle challenge, slime making, nature crafts, team games, drama workshop, trivia quiz……
Watch out for more details coming up for the exciting new session from April – June!
Girls Project
We have Tuesday night sessions for girls in P6+ from 6pm – 7.30pm. This project is all about having fun but gaining confidence and new experiences as the girls’ transition from primary to secondary school. There’s a new programme coming after the Easter holidays – details soon! Places must be booked in advance so contact the office if interested.
Cupar Young Gardeners Team is back!
This very successful project in partnership with Cupar in Bloom sees our young people from P5+ using their green fingers to grow flower and veg plants, help maintaining the local flowers tubs in the Bonnygate. We were delighted to win first place in the Best Pallet / Garden competition for 2022!
Our youth cafe is stated at the Castlehill in Cupar behind the Corn Exchange. It’s a hive of activity and support for local teenagers. Gemma, our Youth Café Co-ordinator leads a team of youth workers who deliver both at the café itself, out on the streets in Cupar and at Bell Baxter High School. Here’s the link to their Facebook page.
Triangle Under 5s Playgroup
