A Youth Club (Nadi as-Shabibah - Moadon Noar) provides a framework, throughout the school year and during vacations, for a variety of stimulating, fun and challenging extracurricular activities for the young people of the community.
The Nadi is organized voluntarily by community members, run by a part-time salaried youth leader, and assisted by a growing number of parents and senior youngsters.
The objectives of the Nadi are to foster and sustain interpersonal connections; to encourage voluntary community involvement; to increase awareness on issues of Palestinian-Jewish relations and social justice; to promote values of mutual acceptance and respect; and to generate individual and social responsibility towards peers, the immediate community, other Palestinian and Jewish communities, and the larger society.
The village’s young people, on finishing the bi-lingual primary school, travel outside as they pursue their education and personal interests. The Youth Club provides the structure for them to stay together and continue to take part in the life of the community.
