Once again, Irie Eco Summer Program has come to an end and has been a great fun!
In our 4th year our essential goals have remained the same: happy children; smiling faces; friendships made; healthy living; ecological awareness; cultural sensitivity and most important immersion into nature!
All the favourite summer activities from the years past were still there!
learning to swim, practicing foreign languages, identifying plants birds and animals in the rainforest, trail hiking, arts and crafts, cultural tours, yoga, eco education, drama, dance
And the recent addition of sailing classes and pottery turned out a succes!
The three different outings each week to different sites gave us an opportunity to play games, go on treasure hunts, try some nature art and to generally discover Dominica’s varied wildlife in a wide variety of locations: Papillote Wilderness Resort, Laudat and Titou Gorge, Cabrits, Layou and ofcourse the Roseau River and the traditional Whale Watch were all part of the highlights of this summer.
The children have been in the caring hands of Traci Coates, Liesbet Schroe, Lucil Bonnin, Kirstyn Goncalves and Trudy Scott Prevost. The enthusiasm and expertise of our staff in arts and crafts, pottery, games, yoga, movements, drama, dance and sports ensured that all participating children, even the ones returning, had new exciting things to do each day. We would like to include a heart felt thanks to our staff.
The support we have received has been overwhelming and we would like to thank, once again, everyone who has made a contribution towards this year’s program.
