Experience The Power of Learning Through Play

Join us and experience a day in the life of teachers and students in a Right To Play-supported school in Rwanda.

Right To Play has been working in Rwanda for more than 20 years. Since 2014, we’ve been supporting children’s education by training teachers how to incorporate play to make learning fun and engaging.

Tens of thousands of teachers have learned how to use positive discipline in classes instead of relying on corporal punishment, how to develop lessons that encourage girls and boys to participate equally, how to use play to keep students’ attention and boost literacy, numeracy, and holistic learning; and how to support children to develop a lifelong love of learning.

These teachers have and will support millions of learners to achieve academically and develop socio-emotional learning skills and leadership abilities that help them in learning and in life.

We visited a school in Bugesera to meet some of the students and teachers there and play is transforming their experience of teaching and learning. . Join Tonny on his walk to school, play a game with Jean and his class, learn how Redempta stopped using corporal punishment in class, and meet Aurore, a leader in her school’s Girls' Club.
