  • develop leadership qualities, a sense of service and the ability to work as part of a team.

  • encourage them to lead a healthy lifestyle.

  • root them in core moral principles

  • root them in a firm sense of who they are and the strength to always be themselves.

  • develop a strong work ethic and emphasise the value of perseverance

  • develop the desire to always strive for excellence in everything you do.
