ABOUT THE CAMP

It is intendedchildren with autism spectrum disorderandto others as wellin the age rangefrom 7 - 11 years
(from the completed 1st grade to the completed 4th grade of elementary school, elementary school with a special or adapted program).
In Slovenia, we have 20,000 children with autism spectrum disorders, which means 24-hour work for parents who never have the opportunity to rest. With the desire to reduce family hardships and parental burnout, we came up with the idea for a camp.
The way the camp is conducted is special and different, it is about "buddy system".
To ensure quality performance of the camp, it isnumber of children limited to 16 (so hurry up withAPPLICATION).
Our camp offers many interesting and interactive workshops and activities outdoors and in a mobile classroom. The spacious surroundings provide plenty of room for movement and creation.

CHILDREN
We all need adjustments to our environment (both home and work), as everyone works in their own unique way. As adults, we have the opportunity to create them, fight for them and say out loud what suits us better and what doesn't.
One of our goals is to make this possible for children as well.
Children are like little "sponges", so we must provide them with the most favorable and stimulating environment in which they work or are studying or playing. Regardless of whether it is a child/adolescent with special needs or a child/adolescent without special needs, everyone is an individual who deserves to be listened to and understood for their wishes, needs, interests and abilities. This does not mean that the child/adolescent is without restrictions and structure, but that within this he is offered the possibility of adaptation if he needs it. When a child/adolescent gets this opportunity, he can be more successful, more motivated for further work and be happy and proud of himself.
In our association, we will advocate for the adjustments that children/youths need throughout all our activities.
We operate according to "Buddy system"andInclusions.
Let's give them a chance to express their best selves!
