Last day

After 31 days, we finished the summer day camp. Kids and youth leaders made an evaluation and of course we had a party animated by the kids and even a dance performance by 2 youth leaders and real lebanese “Zajjal” by the Coccinelle group. Some members contributed with sweets and food and our kids simply enjoyed.

This was our first experience, we have to learn from our mistakes, but in general this was a positive experience for which we’re grateful.

Last days

Yesterday the “just 4 kids” group Grain de Blé came again to give animation for our kids. They were delighted, today they went on their last pool trip to Dibbiye. One feels that the youthleaders are getting tired. A month is long and the high temperatures don’t make it easier. But smallah, our kids enjoy and eat, eat, and eat :)

Second swim trip

…and thank God again nothing happened. The only inconvenience was the technical problem one of our 2 buses had and tehrefore we came home in one bus, all squeezed together, but no accidents. Thanks to the generosity of many our kids are able to relax. The volunteers give whatever they can.

Enjoy some pictures:
