An exciting new project was launched during the July 2011 holiday period. With incentive to develop new skills that will increase future employment prospects, the teenage holiday program activity Café Skills was a huge success. Group participants were assigned various tasks ranging from; taking orders, customer service, barista duties, sandwich hand and cleaning duties. The success of the day has led to this being an ongoing project each holiday period thus enabling the teens to master each element of food and beverage preparation.
Staff and fellow program participants also enjoyed being the recipients of the activity as much as those preparing the food and drinks. People were able to choose their order from a menu, sit back and relax while it was being prepared and finally enjoy delicious toasted sandwiches, hot chocolates and milkshakes.
