The “Sport in Schools” project, which has been running in Smederevo for more than ten years, has so far included 19 rural and suburban primary schools. In future, it will also cover branch schools and classes, of which there are 14 in total in the city.
This was announced at the presentation of sports equipment and at a meeting organised by the School Sports Association in the city’s Assembly Hall.
The President of the Smederevo School Sports Association, Sandra Papić, stressed that the project will include pupils from the first to the fourth grade of the schools left out so far, because it is very important for children to start physical activity from the earliest school age under the supervision of licensed teachers.
The local government in Smederevo recognised the importance of the “Sport in Schools” project early on and supports it, it was said at the meeting during the presentation of the equipment.
The newly elected Member of the City Council of the City of Smederevo responsible for sport and youth, Dragan Đorđević, who has been involved in the project from the very beginning, announced that he will do everything to ensure that the “Sport in Schools” project continues to have the City’s support.
