The event, which serves to kick off the start of the course, was held in Can Mateu (Vilanova de Sau) with participants from the esplais and educational leisure projects of the Federation from all over the territory.
The weekend of September 17 and 18 served the monitors of the esplais of the Federació Catalana de l’Esplai as a meeting point, to raise the new challenges they will face this course. The Movidic, the traditional event held at the beginning of the school year, is a place where monitors from different esplais meet to share ideas and propose new responses to the needs posed by educational leisure.
On Saturday, the presentation of the day took place in which Maria Ferrer, president of the Federació Catalana de l’Esplai (an entity that is part of Fundesplai), highlighted the educational and social importance of the esplais: “We want to continue working so that children and young people in Catalonia can enjoy some time free quality education and for everyone.” Ferrer also applauded the commitment of monitors in their leisure education work with children, young people and families.
At the day, the participants also received training in various fields, some of them related to the educational proposal of Fundesplai:Sustainable food and its impact on the world; the empowerment of esplais; Emotional education; day-to-day management at esplais, first aid, or gender-based violence and new masculinities. The objective of these training pills is to provide resources and updated content to the monitors in order to apply in the daily task to the esplais.
Waste as the center of the educational proposal
The Movidic also presented the educational proposal that for the second year remains around the motto “Menjar canvia el món“, but with a new approach: “An educational proposal for the right to healthy and sustainable food, the challenge of food waste“. In relation to the educational proposal, the eco-chef, Alf Mota, gave a talk entitled “Recipes for a healthy planet”.
In the Movidic, however, there was also time to enjoy recreational activities to establish links between the participants, with the first chariot race or kayaking in the reservoir.
