DIZÉNIDANI ASSOCIATION HOLIDAY CAMP After a year of suspended activities due to Covid, the Dizénidani Association was able to relaunch the Holiday Camp activity for young Tiébélé students, who are involved in a framework of recreation, learning, and environmental awareness-raising. Since 2014, the event has been held annually. The following are the results of the 2021 edition, as reported by the Dizénidani Association.

‘‘To start classes, children and teachers benefited from a distribution of school supplies, consisting of notebooks, pens and chalk. 74 children (44 girls and 30 boys) were able to take part in this edition. This year, four main activities were included in the programme: educational classes (French, mathematics, life and earth sciences); awareness-raising on the environment and climate change; sports practice through Physical and Sports Education (PSE); song and drama classes. A reforestation activity under the slogan ‘‘One child, one tree’’ was the final stage of this 7th edition of the summer camp. About 300 fruit, medicinal and shade trees were planted by the children and their parents, who came to witness the benefits of the initiative for their children. Our thanks go to the Cuomo Foundation, the first faithful partner in this activity.”
