Lunch-hour programs, by age
Our lunch-hour leadership programs, tailored to two age groups. Each runs once a week for five weeks, using cooperative games, role plays, original music and discussion.
Grades 1–5“Expect the extraordinary; become the extraordinary.”
Through cooperative games, role plays, object lessons and discussion, younger students build confidence and discover what it means to lead. Fun, high-energy, and unforgettable.
What they explore
Grades 6–8Leadership tailored to the realities of intermediate students.
Older students tackle the pressures they actually face, from cyberbullying to personal brand, building the communication skills and self-advocacy that carry them into high school.
What they explore
How the programs run
Both formats run once a week for five weeks, led in person by the Kids 4 Kids team.

Heroes Academy (grades 1–5) and Ignite (grades 6–8) run right during the school day. Students build leadership and learn anti-bullying skills, anger management and how to resist peer pressure, through cooperative games and discussion.
Methods include cooperative games, team-building activities, original music and stories, role plays, object lessons and group discussion.
The curriculum
The five-week core is the same proven foundation for every group, then tailored to the children in the room. We can adapt the content to a school's or a parent's specific requests.
“What makes you different as a child will make you great as an adult. Celebrate your difference.”
Parents are impressed with their children's excitement after attending just one session. There is no other program like the Kids 4 Kids Leadership Program.
Topics can include
We're constantly adding new topics every child can benefit from.
Why it works
We don't lecture children about leadership. They live it, through play, music and story, which is why parents notice the change after a single session.
Cooperative games & team-building
Hands-on challenges that surface real leadership moments.
Original music & stories
Scott's own songs and stories that make the message stick.
Role plays & real discussion
Safe practice for the situations kids actually face.

Don't just take our word for it
Highly recommended! Valuable, explicit messages that support anti-bullying policy, peer support, character development, habits of mind, and well-being. Our students were engaged from start to finish and will take away what they learned and use it.
Sandra DifeliceScott's like a big kid himself. I think this is why kids can relate to him. He speaks to them on their level. You walk away from Scott's presentation like you've been to a rock concert or the theatre where you have had a life-changing experience.
Gord DeppeScott's programs offer a great support system for schools. I think every school should have Scott Graham for their students.
