Brief Overview:
Captain Zinco Parico his witty accomplice, Winco are on board "The Golden Ghost". They are on a secret mission - to find the lost treasure of Caribe.
They both have no clue as to what is the treasure, where to look and can you believe, they don’t even know how to sail a ship properly. What they do know is that if they visit the 7 C's, they would find clues that will lead them to the treasure. The 7 C's are our virtues beginning with the letter C.
Through a lot of creativity including a classroom set up as a ship and the 7 C's which are actually 7 islands, the children's understanding of values is reinforced. Each island teaches them something virtuous. At the end of the day they arrive at the last island which is CALM. Here they are taught that the hidden treasures are actually within one's self and these treasures can be accessed through turning our attention within.
A light and interactive way of teaching and sharing something very profound.
