WORK CONTENT:
This is a special Summer project which ROYALKONSULTS has set up to give the kids some something to do during the holidays that will be fun for them and won't cost them a penny. The idea is to keep them entertained and perhaps teach them some skills at the same time.
Our first Summer Camp took place in 2005 at St Matthews School and three have been a great success for all involved! Since then, the volunteers all loved it because they got to really give hands-on attention to all the children in an informal setting. Volunteers have made comments like, "the best time of my life", "I loved every minute of it and I'm going to miss my children!" and the best one, "I'm coming back for next year's camp".
The children love the Summer Camps - they're kept entertained and have somewhere to go during school holidays when there's no one around to look after them, and they get a meal and win prizes! The prize for our volunteers is the big grins across all the kids' faces :-)
One of the obvious activities will be sports - as many varied sports as possible - plus various other children's activities, such as:
*
Any ball games, like Football, Cricket, Basketball, Rounders or Netball
*
Frisbee games
*
Dancing -children love to dance, so putting together a dance concert or dance competition would be fun
*
Drama - Informal Drama productions is another activity that can be initiated - and all kids love play-acting!
*
Music - teaching them to sing, to play an instrument and perhaps to put together a concert to be performed at the end of the holidays
*
Magic tricks, juggling or circus-type activities
*
Simple games like hopscotch, skipping, hula-hoops
*
Arts & Crafts - here there are many options.
*
Any creative activities, like face painting
*
Reading from story books
*
Or anything else your imagination can dream up that will amuse the children.
The kids will be learning to use English at the same time, so they'll not only have fun, they'll also benefit from the activity. These activities also benefit the children by improving their team-work skills, social interaction and building their confidence.
The Summer Camp will take place in the grounds of one of the local schools in Kwabenya and will be for children from all around the area, including other schools in the community. Kwabenya is a small town/suburb about forty minutes drive outside Accra city centre
