European School Sport Day Mental Health Toolkit
About
The Mental Health Toolkit for European School Sport Day event coordinators suggests a variety of activities to inspire schools to try wellbeing-focused exercises that children can do outside at school with their peers or from home as an alternative to traditional team sports.
Using green surroundings as a setting for physical activity can combine the best of two worlds.
ISCA and the Hungarian School Sport Federation developed this toolkit together as part of the #ESSD2020 campaign. It uses evidence-based ideas curated by Hungarian child psychologist Csilla Kaposvari, was edited by Rachel Payne and designed by Kristine Onarheim.
To help start the conversation about mental health in school settings, we encourage European School Sport Day event coordinators to browse the Mental Health Toolkit.
