School festival

To disseminate and promote the products and an idea of the project we established an exhibition and a ‚healthy lifestyle’ stall at the school festival – an annual event, during which pupils, students from all grades, teachers, parents and inhabitants of the neighbourhood can visit the school and de-stress by participating in activities of different themes. Many of the products, such as posters, bookmarks, games and photos were displayed. Two experts in healthy everyday living, Anna Walentukiewicz, from University of Sport Education and Magdalena Dworniczak, running FitKid foundation, provided healthy-lifestyle counselling and advised attenders on how to change their habits and avoid risk factors.

The objectives of the event:

  • encouraging people to have healthy lifestyles
  •  recognizing that modifiable lifestyle factors
  • making healthier diet choices,
  • realizing an importance of getting regular exercise,
  • learning how to manage stress and organize calming environment at home
  • learning how to adopt physical activity as a lifestyle


Good manners – make life easier for others

Life becomes less stressful if you know the rules of how to deal with some situations in different places. To understand how important some informal regulations are we made a list of all the places where they are especially significant. They took part in a quiz about customs trying to guess where the rules are obeyed, afterwards we discussed the differences between mustn’t and shouldn’t or have to and should and after that the students in groups made their own lists of rules for different places in which one should be careful and know how to act. Next, they designed their own leaflets with rules which should be followed in some chosen by them places. The younger students celebrated ‚Good Manners Day. They studied some typical situations and decided if the person presented behaves well or badly. Next, they created images depicting examples of good and bad behaviour.

The objectives of the activities:

  • making students believe that positive behaviour is a life skill and that should be taught
  • spreading awareness of the impact of some rules on our well -being and self confidence
  • understanding that everyone should respect other people’s rights and privacy
  • naming the rules of proper and not so proper conduct
  • learning how to behave in a considerate way 
  • realizing that in case you don’t know how to behave you should behave decently, not hurting anyone.

Meeting with a star

How to achieve success in sport becomes a really important question when you attend a sports school and you are surrounded by people like you, wanting to become stars. To answer questions like that, our Team for Health Promotion invited a special guest – Martyna Borysławska, who is currently a handball player for a national team. Additionally, children took part in other sport activities.

The objectives of the event:

  • understanding the role of the motivation in achieving success
  • recognizing the role of well – being and a proper diet for an athlete
  • teaching children why and how to value learning new skills
  • understanding that sometimes it is the process not the outcome that counts

Children did have fun, asking questions, absorbing some vital tips as well as taking part in all the games and tournaments.
