In the framework of the International Disability Day and for the purposes of the Erasmus+
program entitled “INSIDE-social INcluSion of people with Intellectual DisabilitiEs through
sport”, a multiplier Event took place on Thursday 01.12.2022 at the Margarita Special
Education Center in Nea Penteli, Attica.
The event had been advertised by all the media available to VTC Margarita, and the
response exceeded our expectations. 50 people were gathered.
In addition to individual presences, the Department of Home Economics and Ecology of
Harokopio University with Assistant Professor Mrs. Antonopoulou Katerina attended, as well
as the sports departments of “Pammakaristos” structure and the “Anagennisi” structure.
The day started with the welcome, the morning coffee and the attendees present. It was an
exhibition area, where visitors could browse through the EASY-TO-READ guide, but also see
the sports / games contained.
Initially, reference was made to International Disability Day as well as the Inside program.
Then, the Easy-to-Read guide was presented, which is a creation of the Adapted Physical
Education Teachers of VTC Margarita.
After the presentations and according to the agenda of the day, all attendees went to the
adjacent indoor basketball court, to make an implementation of the program’s practices, but
also for the beneficiaries to play a basketball game.
At the end of the games, food was offered in Margarita’s area that included energy bars,
bananas, and sandwiches. So, guests could relax and talk with each other.
The whole event is presented on Margarita’s site and on Facebook.
