Concept

THE CONCEPT : A place of life 
The Pondy Youth Centre is a house for all kids and teens from 3 to 18 years old.

This house is firstly a warm and welcoming place, a space to discover the others, the world. A place to meet and share, where everyone can bring his own ideas and competences. It is also an area of oral, graphic, and physical expression; a community spot to personalize.

Eco approach: we would like to transmit eco values to children and parents. In this sense, we send all documents by e-mail, we try to print little and on recycle paper, we recycle many items to realize new activities, and cooking workshops are as healthy and natural as possible! If any idea or suggestions about "eco" activities and tips, please keep us in touch! :)
