The camp, that lasted for two months, focused mainly on improving students in the English and French languages, besides learning computer skills, swimming training courses, and conducting research.
Ms. Najeeba Hadad, the deputy of the minister of culture and tourism, was among the distinguished guests who admired the vital role that the GWCC has played in developing young skills and promoting their talents.
She praised the GWCC's various activities that connect the students with social issues and problems, and adapting day-to-day technology.
She confirmed that the ministry of culture and tourism was grateful for such beneficial and successful projects.
She also asked parents to pay full attention to their children by enrolling them in such centers instead of wasting their time in summer.
The students presented different shows and expressed their happiness with beautiful songs and performed sketches in English, as well as expressing their gratitude for the administration of GWCC represented by Ms. Kabool Al-Mutwakel, Ms. Entelak Al-Mutwakel and Ms. Hana'a Al-Shami, along with the qualified and professional teachers.
