Context

PSG for Communities takes advantage of Paris Saint-Germain’s huge popularity among young people to promote their inclusion and foster their healthy social development. It has created the Rouge et Bleu school – an innovative educational tool based around education, sport for health, and culture in order to provide hospitalised children with a solid foundation for well-being and success. 

Project goals

  • Organise various fun, educational daytime or after-school sports activities adapted to the children’s medical needs and limitations  
  • Bring hospitalised and non-hospitalised children together so that they can understand and learn from each other 
  • Inspire a love of learning among children and teach them values of tolerance and openness 

Project content

The Rouge et Bleu school welcomes two groups of 16 children at a time, with activities adapted to individual needs. The programme is designed to: 

- Give children in hospital a chance to take part in cultural and sports activities 

- Provide opportunities to take part in individual and team sports 

- Offer activities that the parents of hospitalised children can take part in as well as supervised activities with care staff on hand
