SCORING FOR HEALTH
Last week, Bibi paid an unexpected visit to all 36 classes from 11 schools in and around Bruges that are enrolled in the Foundation project Scoring for Health, representing 750 pupils. In this project the pupils enter into a contract with the players of our A-core to start living healthier: more exercise and healthier food. Club Brugge's Foundation offers a ready-made teaching package for this purpose to the participating schools.
SIGNING CONTRACT WITH PLAYERS CLUB BRUGGE
As part of this project, Bibi visited all classes late last week to personally hand over the contract, signed by Vanaken, Nielsen and Rits, among others, to the students. They each signed a contract with the players confirming their motivation to exercise more and eat healthier. How will they do this? Through the Club Brugge Foundation curriculum, they learn all about healthy living in 15 lessons, both theoretical and practical.
"Whether the students were surprised? Without a doubt! As soon as the mascot bear Bibi appeared we saw a lot of surprised, happy and enthusiastic faces." - teacher Kim from Sacred Heart School.
"As an extra, before each lesson we try to forward a fun and personal video of one of the A-core players or players to the teacher to show in class. This way we try to motivate them even more by setting a good example and showing the golden advice of the players and players" - Barbara, project supervisor Club Brugge Foundation.
So this school year's Scoring for Health project was officially kicked off with a visit from Bibi and the signing of the contracts. As icing on the cake, the students received a personal message from Hans Vanaken to motivate them and wish them success! The lessons start and we immediately begin with a fun practical lesson: the kick-off in the Jan Breydel Stadium where students will take sports tests, get a workshop on healthy food and of course can fully indulge in the fundorp with bouncy castles and much more.
