Beacon Learning Collaborative RVA

Day 2 of Adventure Awaits Camp!
Yesterday, our campers stamped their passports and traveled to Australia, Japan, and Brazil for a day full of learning and fun.
In Australia, we learned about some of the country's amazing animals, including kangaroos, koalas, and other unique wildlife.
In Japan, campers practiced their folding skills by creating their own origami airplanes and learned about the art of origami.
In Brazil, we got moving as we learned some samba dance steps and experienced a little of Brazil's vibrant culture and energy.
It was wonderful to see our campers trying new things, learning about different cultures, and having so much fun together. We can't wait to continue our adventures around the world!
Take a look at some highlights from yesterday's travels!

What a wonderful start to our summer camp week! Yesterday, our campers began their journey around the world by creating passports, making new friends, and preparing for a week full of adventure and discovery.
We loved seeing their excitement as they jumped into activities, shared laughs, and embraced the spirit of exploration. The energy, creativity, and curiosity they brought on Day 1 made for an incredible start to the week!

Last call for our first week of summer camp, starting TOMORROW!
