Talent Festival in Jenin
Palestinian students participating in the
Relief International-Schools Online (RI-SOL) Global Connections
and Exchange Program demonstrated their unique talents and
hobbies at a festival in Jenin. The RI-SOL Community Based
Learning and Action Center
based in the northern West Bank city of
Jenin
welcomed more than 500 participating students from throughout
the district.
Talents included singing, dancing,
traditional poetry, sport and circus acts and many official
institutions and non-governmental organizations attended. The
most unique event at this festival, entitled '100 Words….100
Dreams,' saw over 300 West Bank and Gaza Strip students aged
5-18 compete in a presentation of their dreams, hopes and
aspirations for a better future. The competition was an
initiative to enable students to put into words their thoughts
and hopes. A student from An-Noor School
for Blind Students was awarded first place and the second place
went to Abdel Rahman from
Gaza.
