This program is designed for Student Participants 8-16 years of age.
Student Participants must be a minimum of 110 centimeters / 3.6 feet tall to participate in the Tactical Laser Tag experience.
Tutoring is completed in a sheltered and warm space.
Homework is usually not enjoyable and it can be difficult for parents to help, as they may not understand the subjects or the way a lesson is taught.
Our After School & Homework Help Program is designed to provide a place where youth can obtain support with a subject (language, math and science) and their homework from older high-school students that excel in the related subject, operating in a safe space and with the reward of some fun and engaging games of outdoor tactical laser tag (that may also be a great physical activity).
Our Peer Tutors are Grade 11 and 12 student volunteers that excel in a specific subject (with grades exceeding 85%).
The Peer Tutor will do their best to help clarify any lessons or homework that a Student Participant has, providing them with support where necessary.
Once a Student Participant has completed their homework or received the lesson support, they will be rewarded with unlimited game play (which includes: tactical laser tag, sports and board games).
Student Participants will play these games with other Student Participants and Peer Tutors.
