OTHER SERVICES FOR THE CONFERENCE
RECREATION AND CARE FOR ACCOMPANIED CHILDREN DURING THE CONFERENCE
The company “Deakaparaya” has organised recreational trips to look after the children that have come to our city during the Conference.
The proposal for the group of children is: share a day in a natural setting, to know the city and its surroundings, visit the beach, take a walk in the woods, by the river and waterfalls, a little history and culture covering the museums of the city, play, enjoy ourselves in a creative environment.
The group will be looked after by Florencia and Marina, from “Deakaparaya”, two young women from Necochea, who have organised the trip for children between 5 and 12 years of age that will visit us during the Conference.
They will provide safety insurance for each child, transport, and lunch or tea if this is required.
It is worth mentioning that during the trips both Spanish and English will be spoken.
