Testimonials

The school had called me to tell me my child was not doing well at school, they were behind but then they had the camp [run by TYT] during the holidays where they helped the kids and they helped them catch up on their school work and get those extra credits that they needed.

What worked well with them is they were able to relate to us, we were all sort of brought up in similar households. It got us thinking about our parents and now we understand how much knowledge our parents know and that we gained from this course.

Some of my teachers didn’t want to know me. They wouldn’t speak to me or even look at me when they’d walk past. I was a 'nobody' to them. So when the Tongan Youth Trust came to my school to advocate the Akongoue Horticulture Programme and homework centre, it felt as if that was the turning point in my life. They gave me a safe space, and the mentors were always helpful to me. I then joined the horticulture program and always attended the homework centre.
