The European School Sport Day (ESSD) is a school day dedicated to having fun, playing together and promoting physical activity and health for everyone. It is a celebration which provides the opportunity for schools to:

Raise the profile of physical education (PE) and school sport

Create fun and enjoyment through physical activity initiatives for young people

Promote health and wellbeing for lifelong learning

Foster social inclusion and develop social competences among their students.

ESSD is open to any kind of physical activity that has the aim to encourage children to be active for at least 120 minutes per the day or to run or walk the distance of the given year (e.g. 2023 metres in 2023).
