The Chinese New Year camp this year will run from Monday 30th January until Friday 3rd February as follows:
This will be an unpaid camp, and we would like to use this opportunity to raise funds for one of the Global Concern projects that UWCSEA Dover supports. We would like to encourage attending swimmers to bring a Hong Bao with them, which the school will donate to 'Light for Sri Lanka'. Details of this amazing project can be found below.
"Light for Sri Lanka Global Concern supports CandleAid Lanka, an NGO established in 1995 by an alumnus family. CandleAid Lanka operates across ethnicities, religions and regions in Sri Lanka, to support economically underprivileged individuals and communities. There are several long-term educational and health projects needing support and our GC contributes funds for CandleAid’s swimming programme and their educational programs which target students who lack the financial ability to pay for school fees.
UWCSEA has been supporting CandleAid Lanka since 1997 with a specific focus on the 'Learn to Swim' project in Colombo."
