Schoolyards as Active Spaces Beyond School Hours

In this session, Tverga will explore how schoolyards can be transformed into dynamic spaces that promote physical activity during free time. Drawing from practical examples and innovative design approaches, the presentation will highlight how to optimize existing school grounds to encourage spontaneous play, exercise, and social interaction. Join us to discover how schoolyards can contribute to a healthier and more active community beyond the school day.
