Who we are
Transforma is the education programme that brings the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games into schools!
Transforma works together with public and private schools, creating opportunities for students up from the 1st grade to high school to:
- Experience the Olympic and Paralympic values
- Try new sports
- Get in touch with the Games
How the Games come to schools
Transforma offers training courses for four categories of multipliers, who carry the sports, experiences and Olympic and Paralympic values to the rest of the school.
Pedagogical Coordinators
Incorporate the Rio 2016 Games to several disciplines and to the school calendar.
Physical Education Teachers
Promote the experimentation of different Olympic and Paralympic sports, while in parallel working with students about values. To do that, these teachers participate in training courses along the year.
Young Agents
As leader students, they mobilize the entire school to participate in Transforma’s activities and challenges.
Young Agents’ Tutors
Offer support for young agents to develop abilities and projects.
How the entire school participates
School challenges: Approach themes related to the Rio 2016 Games and stimulate the students’ creativity and bonding. * Available only for Brazilian schools.
Experimentations of new Olympic and Paralympic sports: Nurture new interests in students during P.E. lessons and promote an active and healthy lifestyle.
Digital content: Educational material and digital environment for distance learning with courses and forums for any school in the country.
Transforma Sports Festival: Free and open event that promotes the experimentation of various Olympic and Paralympic sports.
Transforma’s proposal is to offer information, orientation and inspiration so that all schools in the country create and develop new lessons and activities that integrate the Games and their values to school routine.
With Transforma, students and teachers are living the journey to the Rio 2016 Games!
Sports Training Courses: On-site workshops that train P.E Teachers to practice and teach different Olympic and Paralympic sports in their lessons with equipment made with alternative material. *Available only in Brazil
