Testimonials

Deer Meadow School – Staff Testimonials – August 2011

“Really effective for team building!”

“Facilitators were really good”

“Good reflection after the activities which provided closure.”

“People were asked to go outside their comfort zones which was a great learning experience.”

“Well organized”

“The team building activities were really well done. The afternoon served the purpose of helping people overcome obstacles and work together as a team.”

“I found the 2 hours we spent with the councillors of NexLevel Challenge extremely worthwhile.
The ‘stations’ we participated in were challenging, engaging, and valuable towards a team building atmosphere. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Although the discussions led at the conclusion of the activities felt second nature and common sense they indeed proved to be a valuable exercise in sharing feelings and experiences with each exercise.”

“To everyone at NexLevel Challenge, just a quick note to thank you all for a terrific day and an experience of a lifetime. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and looking back at the photos, we can`t believe we actually got through the ropes course! We haven`t stopped talking about it. You have indeed succeeded in helping all of us gain some confidence in ourselves (and for me by facing my fear of heights!) We all had a really great experience – you were excellent hosts! Thanks again, and hopefully we’ll be back again soon!”

“I just wanted to say thank you for running an excellent program last week for my students. They all had a terrific time!!”

Olds Koinonia School – September 2011

We took our Junior High students and spent a day participating in the low level activities of the NexLevel Challenge program.  The day was fantastic and the program was well run.   The day started with an ice breaker activity which got the students talking with and finding out more about the students from other grades.  Once this was completed the group was led to the low level rope course.  These activities were well run and as the students progressed through each one they learned valuable lessons in leadership, team work and communication.  The NexLevel facilitators were very knowledgeable, helpful and very easy to talk with.

We ended the day with some wrap up activities which continued to focus on the learning of the day.   It was time well spent, with valuable lessons learned, outside the classroom.
