Our Social Academy Club Pedaled for a Healthy Life with the “Bicycle Bye School” Event

The “Bicycle Bye School” event organized by the Social Academy Club with the theme “We live healthy, we stay away from substance addictions” was held on May 27, 2022 at Maltepe beach area. In the event, which was met with great interest by our students and emphasized a healthy lifestyle, students rode bicycles given by the Social Academy Club along the designated route.

After the cycling activity, our students had a fun time in the Maltepe event area by doing various sports activities, especially karaoke, volleyball and tug-of-war competitions. Officials from the Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports attended the event and emphasized the importance of sports in the process of keeping young people away from bad habits such as tobacco use, alcohol use and substance abuse. In addition, the messages of Prof. Dr. Burhanettin HACICAFEROĞLU, Provincial Director of Youth and Sports, were conveyed to our students by the officials.

During the activities, the Social Academy Club offered various treats to our students and the top three winners of the karaoke contest were presented with a Spotify plaque with the song of their choice. Yavuz Selim KÖKSAL, the Club President, said that they want to make this event a traditional event and stated that the educational environment and students need more such activities. Ömer Sıtkı ÇAĞLAYAN, Secretary General of the Club, stated that they would like to organize the event, which they organized for the first time this year, at Göztepe-South Campus next year.
