Committed to sport and health at school

Description of pledge activities

La Salle Sagrado Corazón School is committed to promoting HealthyLifestyle4All in all the school by encouraging the practice of physical activity and promoting a healthy lifestyle in the entire educational community (students, teacher, families, etc.) during and after school hours.

The school has planned several actions for this period including

• Organising national and international events and activities that encourage the practice of physical activity such as
  • “European Sports Day”: playing alternative sports such as frisbee, dodgeball and more
  • “No Elevators Day”: students dance when going upstairs and downstairs
  • “Move Week”: practicing sports such as basketball, football, floorball
  • “Moving Schools Challenge”: a challenge where all students must collaborate to reach a common goal. For example, pupils have to run or walk to achieve a distance from Madrid to important places for La Salle
• Educating students in a healthy lifestyle through sports
• Analysing the level of physical activity of the students through IPAQ (International Physical Activity Questionnaire)

Expected measurable outcome

• Participation in national and international events that encourage the practice of physical activity
  • 75% of students participating
  • 25% of staff participating
  • 10% of families participating
• An increase in the amount of time students spend on doing physical activity. The impact will be assessed using IPAQ (International Physical Activity Questionnaire, "type C” - short version).
