Within eight rotations, more than 1700 students of the 9th, 10th, and 11th grades participated. About 200 teenagers were involved in each 6-day rotation.
The students of the school, with the help of sergeants, underwent fire training, topography, military navigation, first aid, wounded evacuation, self-rescue courses, and engineering and mining training.
In addition to military disciplines, the theater staff near the Patriarchate visited the camp and offered cognitive-educational performances to the children.
The project, initiated by the Department of Strategic Communications and Public Relations of the Ministry of Defense of Georgia, in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, Science and Youth, with the support of the Patriarchate of Georgia, will be implemented since 2023.
