Summer Fun Adventure camp for local children

Writer: Jasper Seidel.

The Sluyter Foundation, with the help of volunteer students from the Netherlands, will be hosting the second edition of the Summer Fun Adventure Camp at the Waldorf School in Sandbaai. Starting on Thursday 5 December, the camp will give children from our local communities the opportunity to enjoy the best first week of their summer holiday.

The emphasis of the Summer Fun Adventure will be on fun, but why can fun not go hand in hand with education? Sara van Dinther, one of the volunteer students who will lead the Adventure Camp, says: “Learning about empowerment through activi-ties such as art, dancing and self-defense, is the ideal way of making the children understand that they are all part of the Hermanus community. By dividing them into groups of different genders and cultural backgrounds, this camp will help to depolarise our different communities.”
