At the start of the new school term in January, ACE Charity started the Bridging Classrooms Across Continents Program, a remote cultural and learning exchange programme in partnership with a school partner in the UK aimed at connecting primary school pupil's and teachers in Nigeria and the UK to promote mutual learning, cultural appreciation, and knowledge sharing. To make this possible we arranged key activities such as Letter Writing Exchange (Virtual Pen Pal Exchange), Storytelling & Literacy Exchange, Art & Crafts Exchange and Virtual Teacher Knowledge Sharing Sessions.
For our arts & crafts exchange activity, the primary 3 to 6 children from the schools we have our learning resource centres in Nigeria and the grade 3 to 5 children from our partner school in the UK were asked to make drawings based on the theme: What Home Means to Me. Each child was provided with water colour, pencils and cardboard papers. The result, excited children who made lovely paintings!
You can catch a glimpse of the painting session here!
Kindly keep supporting our work by donating and sharing why you choose to support us with your community of family and friends.
Thank you!
