Our field school weekends are often filled with fun activities. Students have had the opportunity to explore different places in Turkana county such as Eliye Springs, where they were able to swim in the lake and enjoy the cool breeze at the beach.

There is nothing more satisfying than physical exercise after a week of lectures and field excursions. Many students spend their Sunday evenings playing football at the banks of the Turkwel River next to our campus.
