Banif sponsors two LSAs at Inspire Summer School BANIF Bank is sponsoring two Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) at Inspire's Summer School. LSAs are specifically en- gaged to help children with dif- ficulties participate fully in ac- tivities and interact with other children of their age and with different abilities. The School, which provides educational and recreational activities for children aged 3-12 years, and is based at Razzet tal- Ħbiberija in Marsascala, places great emphasis on the concept of inclusion for children with physical or mental disabilities. This is achieved through inte- gration – classes are comprised of children of all abilities who participate in group play and activities such as horse riding, arts and crafts, swimming, and music, through which they are encouraged to develop relation- ships without the social barriers which are sometimes unfortu- nately still found in today's so- ciety. "We were thoroughly im- pressed with the quality of the facilities and the immediately obvious dedication of the staff and volunteers at Inspire," re- marked Simon Grech, Head of Corporate Service at Banif Bank, after a recent visit. "Although nowadays there is more awareness on the difficul- ties faced by people with dis- abilities, there is still a sense of separation which is largely built on common misconcep- tions rather than fact. This kind of programme completely blurs those lines by allowing children to participate in the same ac- tivities, paving the way for equal opportunities for all. Naturally, this level of commitment places substantial pressure on Inspire's resources. "That's why Banif Bank, whose core values of humanism and ambition are very much in tune with these ideas, was pleased to step in and offer assistance through the sponsoring of two LSAs." Antonello Gauci, Inspire's CEO, added that, "The Inspire Summer School has been run- ning for more than 10 years. As many parents of children with disabilities will testif y, The In- spire Summer School is the only summer school they will con- sider sending their children to. However inclusion is an impor- tant factor and we need children of all abilities to keep the school running. It is thanks to kind do- nations such as these that this remains possible."
