The effects of multiple crisis in the past couple of years affected learning patterns and caused psychological distress for school pupils and students in Cameroon. As a result, we decided to provide an opportunity for them to appreciate other forms of learning, play recreate, and gradually ease them into the upcoming academic year. The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Civic Education of Cameroon encourages such holiday activities where young people can recreate, play, relax and enjoy their holidays in a useful manner.

The program “LESPLAY Special Holidays” provided a platform for such impactful summer holiday activities where young people converged with their peers in a protective and friendly environment, and away from delinquencies.

LESPLAY inspires young persons, students, and children to develop a sense of purpose, life skills, empathy and social competences which will help them to achieve higher academic performance and actively contribute to the well-being of their greater community.

Activities for the LSHP included basic computer training, English and French language learning, mother tongue, arts, craft and games. At the end of the program, participants took part in quizzes and competitions for various prize awards.
