A wise man should know that health is his the most precious property. In our opinion Hipokrates’ thought has not lost its relevance over the centuries. That is why the goal of our project is to demonstrate that "Wisdom and health - the greatest wealth". We want to raise awareness among the students and the whole school community that the quality of our life depends on the state of our health. During the project we will pay particular attention to identifying ways of taking care of our own health – both physical and mental. We will initiate and support actions promoting healthy lifestyle. Working on the project will learn responsibility, help to understand that a healthy student means a healthy citizen and a healthy European. Actions and activities taken by students will promote healthy food, active recreation, methods of coping with stress. We will draw attention to important social problems – obesity, bulimia, anorexia, heart diseases, hypertension, the popularity of fast food. The results of the project work will be materials prepared in English and in languages of all partners. We intend to create among other things: - a guide I EXERCISE EVERY DAY, - a cookbook with recipes for healthy meals, - a multimedia presentation METHODS OF COPING WITH STRESS, - a diary MY HEALTHY WEEK, - a photo album PROJECT CHRONICLE, - a handbook WAYS TO BOOST HEART HEALTH - a educational materials All branches concerning youth life will be present in the project – everyday life, sport, art, hobby, and natural science. As a preference we take development of our students’ school abilities and skills. Our students will plan, make, show and evaluate our project. This way we are going to improve their ability of using modern information sources. Working on the project will learn responsibility, help to understand that a healthy student means a healthy citizen and a healthy European. During the meetings and while working on particular tasks we will gain knowledge of both our own and partner countries and thus raising the European awareness. We are going to make our students participate in educational activities common in European countries. Both students and teachers are to improve language and IT skills while communicating with the partners. Teachers of various subjects are to cooperate and share experiences with European partners.
While planning our project "Wisdom and health - the greatest wealth", we have never imagined how important this topic would become one day. In recent times it has affected all the people around the world. The main goal of our project was to raise awareness among the students and the whole school community that the quality of our life depends on the state of our health. During the project we have paid particular attention to identify ways of taking care of our own health – both physical and mental. We have initiated and supported actions promoting healthy lifestyle in our local communities and in our schools. We are sure that our students thanks to the possibility of working on the project have learned responsibility. But more importantly they have understood that a healthy student means a healthy citizen and a healthy European. Actions and activities taken by our students have promoted healthy food, active recreation, methods of coping with stress. We have drawn attention to important social problems – obesity, bulimia, anorexia, heart diseases, hypertension, the popularity of fast food. A big challenge during our project was the outbreak of the pandemic, because we had to change our working plans and extend the time of our project for one year extra. We have exchanged some mobilities to online and virtual ones. Unfortunately, it has made it harder for us to plan and carry out all of our ideas. The results of the project work are materials prepared in English and in languages of all partners, for example: • guide I EXERCISE EVERY DAY; • a cookbook with recipes for healthy meals; • a multimedia presentation METHODS OF COPING WITH STRESS; • a diary MY HEALTHY WEEK; a photo album PROJECT CHRONICLE; • a guidebook WAYS TO BOOST HEART HEALTH; • other educational materials: scripts for lessons plans, educational brochures, guidebooks and presentations; All branches concerning youth life have been presented in the project – everyday life, sport, art, hobby, and natural science. As a preference we have taken development of our students school abilities and skills. Our students have formed part of planning, making and evaluating our project. We have to admit that this task wasn’t easy for them but it was a valuable experience. This way they have improved their ability of using modern information sources, responsibility and teamwork. The opportunity to travel around Europe and to communicate in different languages has abled our students to became young world citizens. Both students and teachers have improved language and IT skills while collaborating with the international partners. Teachers of various subjects have cooperated and shared experiences with European partners. Thanks to our project we also have obtained several long-term benefits. One of it is the consciousness of the importance of our health and how to care about it. Other profit is a change of habits and our diet. Due to the financial support from the Erasmus+ Program we have purchased equipment, programs that will help us keep track of our health and develop healthy habits, for example: scale with BMI analyzer or electronic ear.
