Healthy lifestyleAccess Balti
General project description: The Access Alumni and students team from Balti were sure that in winter people have little time for outdoor activities or games. We thought that to be healthy is in fashion now and the idea of the project came from the young pupils who were eager to practice sport and have sport competition all year round. Both boys and girls need, besides school and homework, an active way of life.
Project justification: After completing all the activities of the project we realized that in our schools pupils have little time to practice sport or even have no desire. That was the problem that a lot of teachers and parents saw. Computers are the best pupils toys. We made our young pupils to change their computers on balls and ropes. Thats why sport competitions were the best for them. More than that, the equipment we bought will allow us to organize such activities as often as possible.
Project main goal was to promote the active and healthy life style.
Project objectives: 1. To involve teachers and pupils in sport activities/competition. 2. To make pupils understand the importance of sport in their life. 3. To organize sport competitions at the school level. 4. To make parents pay attention to their childrens interests and hobbies
Our project partners were:
1. Vasile Alecsandri Lyceum, Balti2. Peace Corps Volunteers, Balti3. Municipal Sport Community, balti4. American Corner, Balti
Project stagesStage 1: Interviewing peoples opinion about sportWe created a 5-item questionnaire on how important sport is.Then, we interviewed people and analyzed peoples opinion.
Stage 2: Preparing for the Competition Event There were pupils who designed announcement flyers and posters for sport event. Others announced youth about the Sport Event through flyers and social media (Facebook, Odnoklassniki). With the help of our PE teachers and Peace Corps volunteer, we selected the competition participants teams and the place for competition.It was not difficult to design the Competition stages. Together with our teacher and assistant we bought supplies for the competition. That was the most challenging for us, because we had to select the suitable balls and the right number of other sport equipment.Creating a 5-question survey on how useful the competition was to raise peoples awareness on sport was our last step in this stage.Stage 3: Organizing the Competition There were 8 teams of pupils from the lyceum, aged 11-14. There were organized 2 main activities:Mini football championship (4 teams x 6 boys)Sport exercises among 4 teams x 10 pupils
Stage 4: Evaluation of the project impact We interviewed competition participants about the events and analyzed participants opinion on the impact the competition had.
Stage 5: Disseminating the project results among the community The sport committee prepared a movie about all stages of the project and presented it to the National ACCESS Youth Voice competition on december 26, 2015 and to the pupils who were part of sport events and their teachers.
