Tunis, Tunisia – GSP Tunis had a great turnout for their two-week, multi-discipline summer camp! There were 205 children in attendance, ages 4-14. The campers were split into age groups and participated in fun, educational activities throughout the time. The camp was led by professionally trained Tunisians under the direction of GSP Staff and alongside summer interns. This is the third summer camp hosted by the American Cooperative School of Tunis.
The theme of the camp this year was Around the World. The campers learned about global culture and traditions while participating in different activities and practicing English. One of the highlights was in the Art Section of the camp. Soumaya, the art teacher, brilliantly worked with campers to recreate skylines and landscapes of world cities on recycled cardboard! The staff and campers did amazing as they used their creativity and teamwork in the project.
