I hope you enjoyed the summer and had some time to relax and renew your spirit,

mind and body. Fall is a great time to renew your commitment to your family’s

health and well-being. What better place to do that than at your Y?

At the South Shore YMCA we are dedicated to helping all our members establish

lifelong health and fitness habits. Living healthy is about learning to thrive at

every age and stage of your life. With that in mind we are excited to offer fitness

instruction for children as young as age seven, group exercise classes open to all levels, Active Older

Adult classes, and the Partnership Program for physically disabled children and adults.

For those members who are living with Diabetes, Heart or Pulmonary disease, or recovering from

surgery, we offer our Structured Exercise Program. We also have personal training and coaching

services for any member who has set a goal and needs the help of a professional to reach that goal.

We are here to help you on your journey to better health and believe it’s not about the particular

activity you choose as much as it is about the benefits of adopting a healthier lifestyle.

Your journey to better healthbegins at the Y

Yours in health, Lisa Gallagher, Senior Health and Well-being Director

ARTS & EDUCATION — YOUTH

TOP BananaTop Banana is a unique after-school math program where learning math and havingfun go hand in hand. Our approach simply “clicks” with children because it is basedon the scientific knowledge of how human memory works. The program teaches theageless “tricks” for doing math quickly and effortlessly. Instead of the rote memoriza-tion of facts, we place the emphasis on breaking a problem into smaller componentsto devise a solution. Focusing on doing math mentally through logic and reasoning,our one of a kind curriculum turns learning math into playing with numbers. It helpsbuild confidence and self-esteem, learn the practical side of mathematics and embracecritical thinking.

Math KangarooMath Kangaroo is an international schoolchildren competition in mathematics. The contest takes place annually on a third Thursdayof March. The competition originally started out in Australia in the 1980’s. In 1991, it came to France where it was dubbed “MathKangaroo” for the place of its origin. It was brought to the United States 1998. In the United States, 10,000 students in 34 stateshad participated last March.The contestants are offered 24 multiple choice questions in grades 2 through 4 and 30 questions in grades 5 and above. The testsession is 75 minutes long. Students must be able to work independently. Every student is recognized for participating. The winnersand award are announced in May.Top Banana Education Foundation is opening a new Math Kangaroo test center at the Hanover YMCA. To help students betterprepare for the competition in March, practice sessions will be offered starting in September.Grades 3–4 Tues 4:00–5:00 p.m. Grades 4–5 Sat 9:00–10:00 a.m. Grades 5–6 Tues 5:00–6:00 p.m.For registration and practice schedule, please call Top Banana at 888-411-KIDS (5437) or 617-795-1557.
