The programme has provided me with many, many educational resources to use with my children. It has accelerated their learning in reading, writing and counting.

The benefits of CACTUS to our school are huge. This programme actively engages students, promotes team building, creates a positive culture and works on all aspects of the student’s wellbeing as they navigate different challenges in the programme.
