The Emirati—Jordanian camp hosted the Summer Club program activities under the supervision of the camp management and The Digital School administration, in line with the Emirates Red Crescent's humanitarian role towards Syrian refugees and as a means to make good use of the free time of the refugees' children.
The Digital School, as part of the Summer Club program, offered various educational activities and programs covering six main tracks, including general knowledge, technical and vocational skills, and teaching Arabic and English, in addition to recreational activities.
H.E. Saleh Rashid Abdulrahman Al—Tunaiji, Director of the UAE Relief Team, explained that the course, which lasted for months, benefited 685 students, aged between 10 and 16, emphasizing the importance of cooperation between The Digital School management and the Emirates Red Crescent for the benefit of the Syrian refugees in the camp.
Dr. Waleed Al Ali, Secretary—General of The Digital School, highlighted the school's commitment to utilizing technology in developing students' skills and knowledge during the academic year as well as in the summer period through the Summer Club program, which combines learning and entertainment. A recreational and mental sports hour was dedicated, including activities such as Arabic calligraphy, drawing, chess, and documentaries.
The participating students expressed their happiness with the summer program, while their parents thanked The Digital School administration and the Emirates Red Crescent.
It is worth noting that "The Digital School," launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister of the UAE, and Ruler of Dubai, in November 2020 as part of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives, is the first accredited and fully integrated digital school of its kind, aiming to provide students with digital learning options in areas where proper conditions or necessary resources are not available for them to continue their education. It also offers a quality option for blended and remote learning in a smart and flexible way, targeting underprivileged communities, refugees, and displaced individuals, through modern educational materials and curricula.
Last May, The Digital School launched a new phase of its partnership with the Ministry of Education in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan by transforming the Emirati—Jordanian refugee camp school in Mrajeeb Al Fhood into a fully integrated digital school, covering all educational stages from grade one to grade twelve.
