More than 500 children from Castelu and Nisipari ran on October 8 for their right to an education.
Running for Education is a community event within the Together for a better life in Castelu, organised by Reality Check, in partnership with Primăria Comunei Castelu (Castelu Cityhall), Școala Gimnazială Nr.1 Castelu (Castelu School No. 1), and with financial support from Active Citizens Fund – Romania, having along Kaufland Romania.
In May, for the 3rd Running for Education, the children had to first run a bit away from the rain. This time they were able to run, enjoying the beautiful weather. All the participants got a sports equipment, medale and a snack to get some power to run. The fastest kids also got prizes, diplomas and medals for winners.
