It’s not the first time this has happened. Since kindergarten (i5), Nadjat’s school—located in the Ciutat Vella district of Barcelona—has organized a one- or two-night summer camp every two years, but Somaya has yet to get her daughter to go. According to the report <a href="https://educacio360.cat/el-lleure-educatiu-no-era-un-dret/" rel="nofollow"><em>Wasn't educational leisure a right?</em></a><em> </em>d<a href="https://educacio360.cat/el-lleure-educatiu-no-era-un-dret/" rel="nofollow">'Alliance 360</a>Participation in leisure activities (such as summer camps or extracurricular activities) varies drastically depending on origin and income: children from newly arrived families participate between 20% and 30% less in organized leisure activities compared to children from native families. </p>]]></description>
