After a three-year break
Movement, play and sport are elementary and indispensable components of holistic education. They influence the linguistic, physical, emotional, intellectual and social development of children and adolescents. Sport thus promotes the formation of a comprehensive personality, one of the goals to which Colegio Diospi Suyana is committed.
Even in ancient Greece, people competed in various sports. In the year 776 before Jesus’ birth, the first games took place in ancient Olympia. 1896 the first Olympic Games in modern times. God has placed within us the joy of physical exercise, and also the joy of competing athletically with our fellow man. This is true everywhere in the world.
In the tradition of the Olympic Games, Colegio Diospi Suyana hosted its first in-school Olympics this week after a hiatus of over 3 years. Students were able to compete in a variety of disciplines: athletic events such as long jump, high jump, swimming, sprinting and endurance running. But also in team sports like soccer, handball and basketball. Our students were fully committed and the joy of showing their athletic talents and competing with their peers was evident in everyone’s faces.
We thank God for this wonderful day and are already looking forward to the competitions in which the greatest talents of our school may compete against the students of other schools. In the spirit of the Olympic Games./ Director Matthias Rehder
