Big Mouth Camp ![]() DEAL ran the Big Mouth Camp, a
residential camp for school aged children using electronic
communication devices and their families and carers, in 2003, 2004, and
2005.
The primary aim of the camp
was for the children using the
devices to improve their device use and become much more
competent communicators in a fun and relaxing atmosphere
full of (for example) Harry Potter shenanigans.
![]() DEAL unfortunately lacks the
resources to run further camps at this time.
More such camps may be held in the future. If you wish to enquire further, please contact Jane Farrell at Spectronics. |
