The bush camp was filled with learner-centered lessons whereby students did group presentations to CCB staff, their teachers and their peers. There was an essay competition for the students and the top 3 essay winners were awarded gifts, courtesy of CCB and they were granted that opportunity to present their essays to their fellow students and teachers. We also had a bird walk, campfire activity where students shared jokes, songs and games and, to spice up their bush time, they had the chance to watch a movie and swimming pool time. Some students also made drawings during their free time for CCB.
