"This project “healthy, active lifestyle” (HEAL) aims to increase the well-being of all people connected to the project - pupils, school staff, parents, and local communities. The main goal is to raise positive attitudes towards healthy lifestyle, and to help the participants to grow into well-being European citizens. The idea for the project started when the partner schools stated a mutual concern about the decreasing well-being of the pupils. The problems in well-being include various aspects, such as poor eating habits, lack of exercising, issues in mental health, and lack of sleeping. Many of these problems are also linked to today's more challenging and overloading way of life. All partner schools had already started to work with the issues, but the hardest task seemed to be to change the attitudes towards well-being, both at school and at home. Therefore, the participants want to work together and create mutual, good practices and tools they can share with all the participating communities. The project group decided to divide the project into four main themes 1) balanced nutrition, 2) physical well-being, 3) mental well-being, and 4) overall well-being which combines all the themes. The two-year-project is divided into periods between the themes:- Autumn 2019: overall well-being - Spring 2020: physical well-being- Autumn 2020: balanced, healthy nutrition - Spring 2021: mental well-being - Autumn 2021: overall well-being Each theme will be in main role for a longer period of time, and one partner school at time will be leading the activities concerning the theme, including the LTTs in the leading organisation. The project includes versatile activities, such as surveys, workshops, practical training, videos, diaries, projects on eTwinning, guests and visits, individual projects concerning personal well-being, collaboration with homes, local communities and other organisations. A well-being survey will be conducted in the beginning of the project to find out the current state of well-being. Both pupils and homes will take part in the survey. The results will guide the planning of the activities, in order to concentrate on the main concerns. The same survey will be conducted again in the end of the project. This will give us concrete results of how the well-being of the participants has improved during the project. It will also motivate the participants to maintain the healthy lifestyle. The good practices will be part of the everyday life both at schools and at homes. The main objective of our project is ""Supporting individuals in acquiring and developing basic skills and key competences"". The project aims to show and teach the participants skills of how to improve their overall well-being in long-term. During the project the participants will acquire and develop following competences: - Language skills and cultural awareness- Social and civic competences: the participants will learn to work with people from different backgrounds. - Learn to learn: project will develop the participants' learning and working skills, as it offers the participants both individual and collaborative learning activities. - Digital competence: the participants will use different technological devises and communication channels (f.ex. eTwinning, websites, YouTube) during the project. The pupils are taught how information flow through media affects their well-being, and how to handle it critically.- Creativity and innovativity.There are six participating organisations (Finland, Lithuania, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Turkey), with about 4,800 pupils and 480 workers. All pupils and workers will participate in the project and activities locally. Three to four pupils from the age group 7-13 years, and two teachers from each country will take part in all LTTs. Altogether, about 100 pupils and several teachers will have the opportunity to visit the participating organisations. The pupils who join the LTTs should be eager to learn new skills and to share their experiences, as their main task is work as ""well-being ambassadors"" at their home schools. These ambassadors will disseminate the good practices on local and national level after each mobility. All pupils in participating schools will design together a ""Handbook of well-being"" which includes chapters for each of the project's main themes. The good practices and everyday tools will be collected in the handbook which ensure the easy usage of the produced learning material also in the future. The result and impact of the project will be an improved well-being of the participants and a change in their attitudes towards healthy lifestyle.They will have the tools of how to make good choices and stay healthy also after the project. The benefits may also be seen among the future generations when the good practices will spread from pupil to pupil, and therefore the project will improve the well-being of the participating communities in a long term."
