European added value

 

·          The project will produce young people who are more aware of the benefits of a

 

healthy diet.They will learn how to become healthier because they will be aware that a good

 

quantity and quality of food with a regular exercise can help them to control weight, build and

 

maintain healthy bones, joints and muscles. This will produce the promotion of psychological well

 

being and a reduction of stress, anxiety and loneliness.

·          The community will benefit from the project, as the young people involved will be  

engaged in different activities thus preventing them from becoming involved in aggressive acts,

crime and disorder. The involvement in extra-curricular school activities will help us to reduce anti

social behaviour by engaging and channelling young people's energies into positive activities. The

activities will provide an opportunity for people of all backgrounds and religions to come together,

which will reduce the likelihood through the respect for the individuals.

·          The project will produce better teachers and young people who are more likely to

choose to avoid a lifestyle which includes alcohol, drugs, smoking and doping and who understand

the consequence of an unhealthy way of living.

·          To reinforce the cultural identity and the knowledge of the territory, developing the

ability to compare cultures and different ways of living, reinforcing the intercultural dialogue, the

cooperation and the European identity among the countries and reducing racial, religious

discriminations and violent and aggressive acts.

·          All in all, the impact of the partnership will become evident in various aspects of our

life.The participating pupils will gain an understanding of what good nutrition and diet mean for

personal health. Thus, the partnership will contribute to improving the quality of education as well

as the pupils' eating habits, reinforcing the European dimension and the co-operation among

pupils, schools and the school community participating in the project.

 

By involving health centres, food companies and city councils, the partnership will enhance the

 

participating schools' reputation and enable strong community links. Besides, the activities within

 

our partnership will raise our pupils' awareness on how bad habits can affect their life and how

 

good eating habits can contribute to their personal health.
