TEENAGERS celebrating the end of their exams are being urged to sign up for the “summer of a lifetime” and boost their CVs this month.
A project for 16-year-olds is being run across the county and there are 60 places available. The six-week programme is free and includes an “action-packed” week away, as well as the chance to organise a social action event back in Oxfordshire.
The free project is being run by Oxfordshire County Council as part of the Government’s National Citizen Service programme.
Councillor Louise Chapman, cabinet member for children, education and families, said: “It’s a fantastic opportunity for young people to develop their skills, put some real experience on their CV and most importantly have fun during the summer holidays.”
The course aims to develop team-working, leadership, communication and decision-making through challenges, events and team building.
It starts on July 21. To book a place, call or text Shelley Maxfield on 07775 407 557 or go to Facebook for Summerofalifetime Oxfordshire.
