Forest School, Pony Farm and Rabbit Farm \u2013 these and other novelties were presented by the Summer Camp of Feldman Ecopark this season. It is the third year when the region\u2019s single free complex of children\u2019s health-improving and educational camps starts its activity in the territory of the Regional Landscape Park. From the beginning of June to the end of August, children from Kharkiv oblast aged 8-14 are able to have a rest here and to make good use of their time.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year, there were a lot of those who wished to have a rest here, and the registration started in early spring. The sessions are already formed till the end of August. We tried to increase their number as much as possible for as many children as possible to be able to arrive here,\u201d the head of Feldman Ecopark\u2019s humanitarian programmes Iryna Yavorska told. \u201cWe have a city camp and a regional camp, the camps for the members of Children\u2019s Academy and the children of our staff. Starting from 2016, we also have a camp for children with special needs. Each of these camps has its own programme, however, all of them equally use all resources and demonstrate all possibilities of Feldman Ecopark.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to her words, in addition to the traditional lessons in the Horse Complex, the Theatre of Children and Animals and the Master City, the new and interesting directions aimed at profound study of biology appeared.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring the excursion lessons of the Forest School, children will be able to watch the wildlife \u2013 to learn flora, small mammals, birds, amphibians, and insects. They will be able to develop skills of domestic animal care in the Kind Donkey farm, Rabbit Farm, Pony Farm, and to grow plants in our greenhouse and during the lessons of the Young Foresters circle. And of course, inflatable amusements, games, walking-tours, lake swimming and other summer entertainments are waiting for the children,\u201d Iryna Yavorska told.<\/p>\n
It should be reminded that children\u2019s health-improving and educational camps are open during the summer holidays in Feldman Ecopark since 2015. In addition to recreation and health improvement, sports activities and communication with peers, children have the opportunity to acquire additional knowledge and skills of animal and plant care \u2013 to get to know the nature better and to love it more. Children stay in the camp during the daytime (from 10 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. with hot dinners and transportation with the company\u2019s bus). Every session lasts for 6 days (from Tuesday to Sunday).<\/p>\n
