The holiday season is here again. For the students, it is time to play and relax after the stress of the school year. It’s the period they’ve been waiting for, when they can sleep freely without the unwanted wake-up calls. For some parents, this may be a temporary relief from the hassles of school runs. Not for working parents, however.
For working parents, this period brings its own hassles. There is the stress of trying to find a babysitter to look after the children while you’re at work. There is the worry that they would get into trouble during your absence. You are okay with them resting and having a good time, but you don’t want them to spend all that time playing. Summer schools are an option, but who wants to go to school during summer as well? How about an option where they could learn, have fun and garner new experiences all at once? Yes, let’s talk summer camps.
There are quite a number to choose from,
French Institute of Nigeria Summer Day Camp: This is a French day-camp for children from 6 to 14 years old, mixing French classes and various activities like sport, fine arts, etc. The camp will mix French classes with creative and fun activities. There are two groups and each would take place twice a week; the first from Monday-Wednesday 9am-1pm, and the next Tuesday- Thursday, at the same time. Basic French would be taught for the first two hours of each class, and then activities (games, painting, drawing, singing, sports, etc) in French for the next two hours. This is a great opportunity for your child to be bi-lingual! Batch 2 begins from August 1st and ends August 31st, and the monthly cost is N17,600. For more info, click here.
