For the youngest school holidays are themselves synonymous with leisure, pleasure and joy. But in Vila Nova de Famalicão the school holidays are much more than that, they are sporting and recreational, they are physical and cultural enrichment, knowledge and much animation.
Every year, during the school holidays of Christmas and Easter, the City Council, through the Department of
Sport, provides
Sports Holidays, an initiative aimed at all children who attend the first cycle of basic education in the county, and that intends to occupy in a healthy and amusing way this period of school pause.
These days are full of surprises and sports activities. Between the municipal pavilion and the swimming pools, children practice various modalities like basketball, volleyball, handball, soccer and swimming, but traditional games and dance are also present.
All the activities are supervised by municipal Physical Education technicians who closely follow all the games and support the young ones in the learning of new sports, providing a greater sports enrichment.
