I do agree with Gay Macdonald. Both maths & science are important areas & so is environmental study.These can be made strong in the early years through various playful experiences. WF organisers can give a thought to this.Academics also have importance.
SUbstance Abuse Youth Networking Org.

I see no mention of substance abuse as a topic of interest in your subject outline. Juvenile substance abuse is the number one contributor to juvenile crime and other personal problems. Over 70% of both adults and youth behind bars nationally are there for drug-related offenses. The positive corrrelation between drop-outs, gangs, crime, STDs, unwanted teen pregnancy and more is 70%-plus with substance abuse. Suggest you expand/ modify your program, accordingly.

This is a great list and will make for a most thought-provoking meeting, in the tradition of those already held.
I was surprised and sorry to see that neither math nor science is mentioned in the curriculum area. Although literacy is of primary importance, children without skill in math and science are at a grave disadvantage in today's world and countries without resources in this area are at a huge competitive disadvantage.
