When we were still abroad and came back to Trieste as soon as school ended, to spend a long Summer here, every year there was the same question: How to keep the girls busy, help them make Italian friends while having fun?
That’s how we discovered there’s a whole lot to do for kids, Summer courses and camps and workshops especially created for them, from sports to art to languages… For sure there’s something suitable for your child, too …but hurry up with enrolments, some courses fill up quickly!
