Life skills are very important and by doing voluntary work, students can learn not only how to communicate with others and work in a team but also how to manage their time and improve their organizational skills.

After-school clubs are no longer that popular and students mostly go home and sit in front of the TV, browse internet or play video games.

Students will also gain more respect towards work and money as they will realize that it is not that easy to earn them and hopefully will learn to spend them in a more practical way.

|
|
Healthy life balance and exercise are strongly promoted by the NHS, and therefore any kind of spare time charity work will prevent them from sitting and doing nothing.

It could also possibly reduce the crime level in the high school age group.
|

|
|
|
If students have activities to do, they will not be bored and come up with silly ideas which can be dangerous for them or their surroundings.
|

In conclusion, I think this is a very good idea, and I hope this programme will be put into action for high schools/colleges shortly.
