As a result of the beginning of the new school year, the Ministry of Education and Science was honoured at the 2019 Rimi Riga marathon's most sporting and active schools. Thanks to the support of Riga City Council and Latvian sports Federation Council, in May, 2 655 pupils from all over Latvia participated in the running festival, competing in the “Latvian School Cup 2019”. Both the best schools from Riga and Latvia and teachers who gathered the fastest pupils and the number of pupils on holidays received recognition and awards.
The tradition for schools and pupils to compete with each other and participate in a running festival on reduced membership fees was established as early as 2008. 1 586 pupils from Riga schools and 1 069 pupils from other Latvian cities participated in the broad and unified Latvian School Cup.
“I wish everyone to find happiness in the movement.” Whether playing bombs at school or serious training. But without losing the energy charge, the satisfaction of sporting and also the sympathy for sporting achievements. It is not only a healthy and useful time, but it is a joy, pleasure and azar. Suplinska, Minister of Education and Science said.
THE President of LATVIA Einars Fogelis expressed his wish to make Latvia's largest running festival available to every child and teenager throughout Latvia. “In the years of the years of children, the popularity of the growing race leads to confidence that the People's sport is increasingly becoming a regular ritual, in which there is a good feeling that strengthens the foundations of healthy, modern nation. In order to keep progress in the long term, it is important to provide opportunities for every child and young person to engage in sports activities, applying physical activity types in accordance with his or her physical preparedness and interests,” said president E. Fogelis.
This year, the Latvian School of Higher School was awarded a sports school “Arkadia”.
