10 Ways We Celebrated Go Skateboarding Day, New Learning Spaces in Phnom Penh, Curriculum Updates

10 Ways That Skateistan Celebrated Go Skateboarding Day

From Mazar to Kabul, Afghanistan, and Cambodia to South Africa, Skateistan students participated in a rad day of skating and fun with their communities to celebrate the day. We introduced Go Skateboarding Day to Afghanistan in 2009, and for new Skateistan students, this is often the first opportunity they’ve had to skate in public with a group of friends.

Curriculum Update: Natural Balance

From April to July this year, our Skate and Create students were studying the Natural Balance curriculum, which explores the cycles of the natural world and our place within it. Lessons included learning about self-esteem, recycling and the environment, as well as healthy living and nutrition.

Local Update: Building New Learning Spaces in Phnom Penh

Library built in Phnom Penh

To increase the impact that Skateistan has on the local community, we created a new learning environment for children at Skateistan in Cambodia. We built an interactive library space for students! It became an immediate draw for them and other children in the community, so much that we had to build an additional reading space to accommodate such a high number of kids.
