Abstract
This study investigated the outcomes of a psychosocial camp that was conducted to address the well-being of vulnerable children in the North West Province. A mixed method sequential explanatory study was employed in three specific phases. The first phase included a quantitative method, with 120 learners in a control and intervention group. Questionnaires were used in order to complete the randomised pretest-posttest design. For the quantitative data analysis the IBM SPSS Statistics Version 25, which included tests like ANOVA, t-tests and correlations was used. The second phase of the study consisted of a qualitative design, whereby the participants participated in semistructured interviews, essay writing and a focus group. Qualitative content analysis was employed to analyse the data. The third phase integrated the findings from the first two phases in order to draw up recommendations and guidelines for future camps. ..
