The Learning Planet Institute is delighted to welcome two classes of 3rd graders from Miriam Makeba (Aubervilliers) and Iqbal Masih (Saint-Denis) for the launch of the 24-25 edition of the The Schools Challenge.
The students will be accompanied by their mentors from JPMorganChase and the Learning Planet Institute. The launch will be an opportunity for them to get to know each other and find out more about this year's challenge: Imagining an installation inclusive in the recreation of the Seine-Sain collegest-Denis.
Students will be asked to reflect on the diversity of playground practices, and to imagine an installation offering innovative and inclusive uses. The aim is to create a dedicated environment that will enable everyone to live their rights to the full on a daily basis, and to enjoy a space for play, relaxation and creativity within their school.
This installation must be accessible and usable by as many schoolchildren as possible, and must be small, durable and economically viable.
The students will have five months to think, imagine, create and present their prototype at the final on April 3, 2025 at JPMorganChase.
We can't wait to see what creative and inclusive solutions the students come up with to reinvent the playground!
