The Programme

Six disciplines.
One careful season.

Two weeks, residential. A curriculum built around studio time, mentor company and the quiet rhythms that turn a holiday into a formation.

Character FormationNº 01

Daily · throughout camp

Character Formation

Mornings open with reflection. Evenings close with a mentor table. Between the two: an unspoken curriculum of virtue — attention, honesty, courage and care for the boy beside you.

  • — Daily reflection
  • — Vice/virtue conversations
  • — Brotherhood circles
Art & CultureNº 02

Drawing, painting and sculpture under practising Nigerian artists. Curated visits to the Yemisi Shyllon Museum of Art, with conversations that turn looking into seeing.

  • — YSMA museum tours
  • — Critique sessions
  • — End-of-camp exhibition
Creative WritingNº 03

Creative Writing

Short fiction. Spoken word. Letters home. A boy who learns to write well learns to think well — and to argue without raising his voice.

  • — Editorial workshops
  • — Spoken-word night
  • — Letter to a future self
