For this reason partners all together prepared a project to show how to adapt doing sports and healthy nutrition. With the basic idea to establish a partnership based on devoloping and applying the transfer of good practices between schools.During this two years process we intended and tried to inform students and families the rules of safe and correct nutrition and suggested healthy living habbits and the importance of doing sports. We also tried to show the process and effects of the course of healthy life. All partners worked with the same sensibility and tried to find solutions and suggestions.
Especially our aim was trying to get to adapt school age children the habbit of healthy eating awareness ,seeing the results of doing sports upon our body and whole life in an entertaining way. While doing this we tried to find solutions, tried to show that good nutrition and doing sports can help to reduce the risk of some diseases and increase human beings energy level. All activities done in this two year period with students ,families ,stakeholders all together and were largely able to succeed. All these intramunal and extra scholastic studies and activities between students created awareness and helped us to be succesful.

Our project team involved from 7 teachers 50 students, admisnistrative staff and other stakeholders. Team metings to discuss and exchange ideas suggessions were hold. Tasks to team members were distributed. The programme , the project, the topics, objectives to the school community (students,teachers,administrative staff, parents and other local authoroties)was presented. Project included 2 transnational Project meetings att the beginning and end in Turkey. 4 LTTA’s in Italy,Poland, Slovakia and Spain.
These two TM were hold in Turkey with the participation of coordinator teachers and back up contact persons.

Before the first transnational meeting every country created their Erasmus + corner at school. Choose their team,placed the digital monitors in şargely visible areas at school ,designated and created informative brochures.
Also at the front end stage af the project before the first TM a questionairre was prepared in line with all partners this questionairre was implemented to all project partner school stakeholders online via internet. The results were evaluated at the first TM and itenerary was planned into consideration to these results.
The same questionairre was implemented to all stakeholders at the end of the Project and was evaluated again at the final TM in Turkey. These twoquestionairres were very sufficient to see the changes and progress between the beginning and end.
And it was pleasing to see that there was positive development. These two questionairres and results were webificated at our official web page (forhealthyfuture.org)
