NUN Schools Had an Enjoyable and Instructive Winter Camp

NUN Schools Had an Enjoyable and Instructive Winter Camp

NUN Winter Camp, organized between January 23 and 27, was home to various enjoyable and instructive activities. The camp hosted international participants, giving a multicultural experience to students who enjoyed the nature and learned more about history and sciences.

 

Primary school students took a step towards sustainable life by transforming what they collected from nature in the workshop. They recycled the materials they did not use in their homes and turned them into useful materials. They discovered the history of Istanbul all together for a day. They made a site visit to Hagia Sophia and Basilica Cistern to learn about their history. They learned the swimming styles and explored plants, ground cover and living creatures. They set up tents and learned the practical aspects of being left alone in nature.

 

On the other hand, middle school students had an opportunity to observe the nature and the soil and discuss the reason of the existence of the living creatures, plants and trees. They grasped what it meant to be a team by researching and competing with each other. They learned together in collaboration. They experienced traditional archery and enjoyed learning by experiencing during a bicycle tour with an English history narration. During the healthy life hour, they swam, played traditional games, did kick box, a and pilates exercises. They understood what it is to team up and unite in basketball and football tournaments. They developed sustainable living skills, setting up tents and lighting a fire in the Riva forest. They increased their English communication skills by practicing their English with international participants. All the participants made good friendships and wished to meet each other again next year at the end of the camp.
