Solution

The Amasco workshops seek to transform vacations into growth opportunities for children. 

The association makes learning less associated with a difficult task, by organizing 5 days of fun and educational activities in small groups each holiday.

Coaches and teachers each supervise six children, and seek to share the pleasure of learning through theater, board games, robotics, shared reading, visits to cultural sites, and cooperative challenges.

Focus on the first week of workshops!
Focus on the first week of workshops!
It's already been three weeks since the start of the summer workshops! 
 
In the first week, under the theme "Olympics/Sport: All Champions", one of the flagship activities was "morpion relay". At Amasco Workshops, we encourage the development of team spirit and the expression of emotions through physical activities. 
 
This activity involved being the first of two teams to line up 3 scarves of the same color horizontally, vertically or diagonally. 
 
To begin, the two teams stand in single file. In turn, each child places his or her colored scarf in a square. On their way back, they clap their teammate's hand so that he or she can leave to drop off their scarf in turn. Children can choose to build a line or block their opponents'. Facilitators can advise them on their strategies, helping them understand how to win or prevent their opponents from succeeding. 
 
At the end of the exercise, children will have been physically active, improved their motor skills and developed strategies as a team - a complete activity!
 
See you soon for the continuation of the Amasco adventures!

After weeks of work, preparation and organization, we're delighted to announce the launch of our summer workshops!" 
The workshops will run from July 8 to August 23. For four weeks, children will be able to develop and learn around four exciting themes: 
 
🏅 JO/Sport - Tous champions : Discover sportsmanship and the importance of physical activity. 
 
🎲 Game creation - Game heroes: Children will dive into the world of games by becoming creators. 
 
🍏 Healthy eating - From Fork to Fork: Learning the basics of a balanced diet while having fun!" 
 
🌊 Water/ocean - Big blue or blue gold? : Conquering the wonders and challenges of water and the oceans. 
 
Around 1,000 children are expected to attend over 50 weeks of workshops. They will take place at over 40 sites in Ile-de-France, Centre Val de Loire and Auvergne Rhône-Alpes. It's a unique opportunity for children to develop the 3 key skills we're looking for: a desire to learn, self-confidence and a spirit of cooperation.

Why we love it?

As much as we love the vacations, we mustn't forget that they are a time of significant social discrimination. What we love about Ateliers Amasco is their ability to reverse this trend by transforming vacations into a unique opportunity to cultivate the pleasure of learning.

"Manuela and I co-founded Amasco to share the treasure we received as children: a curiosity and pleasure in learning every day!"
