The Chief Executive Officer, Rupetta Academy Tech Swimmers: Coding, Chess & Swimming Club, Mrs Katmaan Senlong has harped on the importance of educating the children beyond the ‘four walls’ of the classroom.
Senlong, an education advocate, gave the charge in a chat with newsmen at the end of a maiden summer school organised by the academy in Abuja.
She said the need to educate the young ones through informal means could not be over-emphasised, adding that it would help in fostering the overall growth and development of children in the country.
“An informal setting such as what we offer in our club, aims to equip children with the skills necessary to thrive in today’s ever-evolving world of technology.
“Children are empowered and introduced to new skills in a fun and engaging manner, while embracing the joy of learning.
“Each club activity brings a unique set of benefits that contribute to holistic growth and development,” she said.
Senlong explained that the club was a pioneering institution dedicated to nurturing young minds through a holistic approach to education.
She said with a focus on technology, swimming, and chess, the academy empowers children with valuable skills that extend beyond the classroom, fostering their overall growth and development.
She said that the summer school, which aimed to nurture young minds through a blend of technology, sports, and strategic thinking, proved to be an inspiring journey of growth and achievement.
