Press play and listen to what one of our Young Leader's together with his Mother have achieved and what they have to say about The Academy. Sister Sarah has 3 children who attend The Academy and she is also one of our phenomenal mentors and Parent Volunteers!
The support, dedication and love from the parents has been overwhelming, and a big contribution towards the success of LYLA. The parents make it easy for us to be a family and we love them very much.
They thank us for the work we do with their children and we thank them for trusting us with their children.
This is why we do our utmost best to give our boys and girls the best future we can offer them and set them up for the greatness they have to come.
My daughter has only just started, but she is taking more pride in what she is doing. She enjoys attending and loves learning new things to build her self esteem up. Great work and so happy and proud to be part of LYLA!
My son has only been with LYLA for 3 weeks; before he started he was very reluctant to go. From the very first session he had an amazing time, and I can see growth already. I look forward to seeing more of my son's development over the coming months.
