Description
The projects provide an opportunity for young people to experience a lifestyle based around the simple philosophy of doing rather than talking and fixing rather than complaining.
There are four main projects depending on the season:
- Helping with beekeeping, cleaning beehives, collecting honeycomb, feeding bees during rainy season.
- Helping on swimming lessons on the swimming pool nearby;
-Innovated workshops in different subjects to create opportunity to the kids to gain knowledge on science, technology, engineering, arts and environment. Our aim is to create more opportunities for young people to gain knowledge through discovery and to gain confidence, creativity and interest in science, technology, engineering, environmental issues, maths, art and learning as a whole
-Pebble art on bee boxes and flower cups
We also need some help with social media
