Żebbug primary school is currently focusing on a new curricular project entitled Defeating Obesity Through Sports and Healthy Eating.
The project will give each child the opportunity to improve their skills on three fundamental dimensions of learning: physical (balance, flexibility and endurance), mental (increased concentration, alertness and problem solving) and social (self- confidence, teamwork, leadership).
To reach its aim, the school gym is being completely modernised through the Eco Gozo initiative.
Interlocking rubber tiling will be used to cover the gym floor and new equipment will be installed.
The project will complement the recent opening of three new school gardens by the Ekoskola committee during Arbor Day.
