The training for the students’ Leirskule service has begun. First year students are taking over from the second year students and are, during an intensive week, learning the necessary skills in different activities to be able to lead the activities for the visiting children from Norwegian schools. The group learning kayaking, for example, have to not only master kayaking skills but also learn how to lead the activities in a safe and engaging way. It is April but the fjord is still icy cold – even so they still have to challenge themselves and sometimes they fall in. It sounds hard, but it is enjoyable!
