In collaboration with other schools in the country, the Groupe Scolaire École Diana Mariame (GSDM), a French nursery school near at the Fajara Booster Station, recently concluded a six-week summer camp at the school campus.

As part of the summer activities, a trip was organised to SOS Herman Gmeiner Village (orphanage).  The children were taken to the SOS to enable them to have the opportunity to meet other children of their age groups in a different environment.  The visiting children also took along gifts for their counterparts at the SOS village.

The children were also taken to the swimming pool for their usual swimming lesson; they visited the national museum, the national library and many other places in Banjul. Lessons were conducted at École Diana Mariame on subjects like English, Maths and Science, and other special subjects like ICT and French.

Sporting activities were also organised in the school. Children were also awarded with certificates and prizes. The Head of the school, Mrs Mary Samba-Christensen encouraged parents to take their children to École Diana Mariame School. She said that the school has created a conducive learning environment for the children and it will boost the moral of the children both physically, mentally and socially.
