Posted on Thursday, August 17, 2023 10:16 AM

On August 11th we had the opportunity to tour Camp Nia and Camp Mkeka, the GECDSB’s Summer Learning Programs for Black Students. Families and community members joined in to learn about Afrocentric storytelling and take part in math and physical fitness activities.
