 ​​The Essential Life Skills for Success program is a NEW and unique concept which has been freshly written by the Gollatz Team for the  more  mature  student. The young adults will learn and practice life skills not taught anywhere else but are vital for life's success. The Essential Life

 Skills for Success program is not a continuation of the Cotillion events nor is it a type of supper club.
