Founded in 1946 in Pessac, the Stade Pessacais Union Club Roller Sports is a multi-disciplinary roller skating association. Its aim is to promote roller skating through various competitive and leisure activities.
A member of SPUC Omnisport, SPUC Roller has more than 340 members practising five disciplines: Figure Skating, Skating School (children), Freestyle Roller, Roller Hockey and Hiking.
After 70 years in existence, the club’s irreproachable management and outstanding sporting results have earned it recognition as one of the leading national roller sports associations, as demonstrated by the fact that it has been awarded three stars in the three labels awarded by the French Roller Sports Federation. In 2019, SPUC has been awarded the ‘School’, ‘Sport for All’ and ‘Competition’ labels .
The team is made up of salaried staff and, above all, a large number of volunteers active in all disciplines.
Aux couleurs du DEBA is an association with 15 years’ expertise in European projects, non-formal education, intercultural dialogue, active citizenship and young people with fewer opportunities (NEETs).
It helps young people, as well as professionals and volunteers, to develop their personal, social and professional skills while respecting democratic values and human rights.
She plays an active role in the creation of educational tools and resources on a range of themes, including violence prevention, anti-discrimination, inclusion, gender equality, citizenship and human rights education, and raising awareness of the social economy.
A specialist in non-formal education, she has an excellent command of active teaching (including games as an educational tool) and educational engineering.
The school is located in an isolated rural area, in Suteşti, in a village near the town of Drăgăşani (Vâlcea – Oltenia region). It includes nursery, primary and secondary schools. It has 160 pupils aged 3 to 15 and 17 teachers.
The families come from working-class and farming backgrounds. The school is benefiting from a government modernisation project, via the Sutesti town council. The risk is that our pupils will leave for the city and that the school population will decline. That’s why we’re working hard to make our school attractive and to raise its profile.
Our ambition is to develop our school for the well-being of our pupils and their families. We want to create a shared culture with our European partners on a range of issues, and develop a sense of European citizenship.
To this end, we have already taken part in a number of European and local projects:
-From stereotypes to gender equality’ project. Prix Hippocrène 2019.
Promoting the idea of Europe to primary school children with the Nantes-based teachers’ association ’Euroécole.’
-Participation in the national education programme ‘La semaine verte’: activities outside school linked to climate change, environmental protection and human impact on the environment.
-Vivre ensemble’ project on recycling electrical waste.
-Participation in the national education programme ‘Autre école’: pupils organise or attend various events. These are mainly cultural, artistic and sporting activities.
