Nominated by their teachers, Catapult campers are the students who have demonstrated natural leadership abilities but who lack the opportunities, the role models and/or the guidance to reach their full potential. Campers learn problem solving techniques, decision-making skills and the benefits of effective teamwork. The program is a combination of inspiring presentations and exciting adventure activities set in an atmosphere of fun and friendship. The newly developed optional extended program will provide our alumni with an opportunity to network with like-minded Catapulters throughout High School while learning new tools to help them understand how to use their individual talents in order to lead with confidence. The expectation is that Catapult will serve as a basis for these young citizens to become more active participants in their schools and eventually, future leaders for Nova Scotia.
