STUDENTS of the Guyana Learning Institute (GLI) on Saturday participated in an event at the National Park, called ‘Day of Interaction’, geared at promoting social interaction among Guyanese from all walks of life.
Principal of the Guyana Learning Institute, Ganga Persaud related that the students were tasked with crafting and implementing a project that would foster social interaction for dozens of persons.
“The main aim is to get Guyanese from different walks of life, different social backgrounds and different age ranges together and recognise that they can all do things together,” Persaud said.
He also related that the ‘Day of Interaction’ was intended to promote physical fitness, and as such, the students were required to host several outdoor games.
The students decided on doing a few sporting activities and novelty races, before engaging in a few rounds of board games.
Aside from the promotion of social interaction, Persaud also related that the activity allowed the students to get to know each other outside of the formal classroom setting.
