Life skills

With a Life Skills course, you get the tools to master your life, experience a sense of belonging, and become part of a larger community.

A Life Skills course focuses on community, teaching, joint activities, play, excursions, and socializing with a lot of new people.

Life Skills is part of our general curriculum. You will have Life Skills classes, and the rest of the time, you will be with the other students in teachings on theology, society, the Bible, communication, etc., and participate in our morning devotions.
All of this will strengthen some of the life skills and insights that are relevant to both your daily life and your active engagement with society.

What you get out of Life Skills

You will have the opportunity to develop yourself positively and to acquire new social, personal, and professional perspectives.
We want to strengthen you as a whole: your faith in yourself as a valuable human being, your understanding of yourself in the community with others, and your ability to find space for questions about existential issues and thoughts about God and faith.

Based on the topics: living with oneselves, living with others and living in society, you will be guided throughout the process through exercises and active participation in teaching as well as practical work.

A stay also contributes to clarifying your future plans.
