Day 2: Swimming pool!
Our first full day at camp saw the children start their English classes. The oldest students, the Rabbits, are with Carmen. After some fun getting-to-know-you games, they talked about ways to save water, and presented their ideas to the class. The Ducklings (my group, 8-10-year-olds)…
Day 1: Settling in beautifully

Day 10: Goodbye Camp 1!

Day 4: More exploring!
Today was full of action! Chipmunks jumped through hoops to learn the names and the order of the planets, as well as crafting some planets of their own. The friendly farm cat with many names joined in the learning too. The Ducklings talked about what…
Day 3: What’s at the farm?
