A multifaceted platform that addresses a wide array of societal needs


Hello, from YesCIC

YesCIC is dedicated to enhancing educational opportunities in the Territory by promoting the acquisition of skills in educational board gaming, card games, historical gaming, and role-playing games for both children and adults. YesCIC will achieve this goal through the organisation of gaming workshops and events conducted within and outside of schools, libraries, and community centres.

Furthermore, YesCIC are committed to promoting scientific and artistic education for individuals of all ages. This objective is realised through the provision of workshops, events, and hands-on activities.

In addition to educational pursuits, YesCIC is actively engaged in the betterment of well-being and mental health, particularly among families of all age groups, including disadvantaged communities. This endeavour is accomplished by hosting small and large-scale community events that offer high-quality, hands-on, and visually engaging activities centred on science and arts-based learning.

All of the aforementioned programs and initiatives are meticulously delivered within local schools, community centres, libraries, council-led facilities, and private venues.
