Sports Festival 'We are different, but together we are power!'
According to a long-standing tradition, Belarusian and foreign students of Euphrosyne Polotskaya State University of Polotsk come together to celebrate the beginning of the academic year. The students participated in a sports festival called 'We are different, but together we are power!'.
The event was organized as part of the 'Week of Sports and Health' by the Department for Ideological and Educational Affairs, the sports club, and the students' trade union committee.
Three teams met on the sports field: 'Belarus', 'Turkmenistan', and 'Friendship of Peoples'. Regardless of their nationality, faculty, or group, all participants united into a close-knit student community. In an atmosphere of friendship and mutual support, everyone had the chance to showcase their skills in competitions, making the event even more enjoyable and memorable.
As a result of the competitions, the prize places were distributed as follows:
• 1st place – team 'Turkmenistan'
• 2nd place – team 'Belarus'
• 3rd place – team 'Friendship of Peoples'
Elena Konovalova, teacher-organizer of work with foreign students: 'The sports festival was held in a friendly atmosphere, and all the participants showed their cohesion. We would like to thank the teams for their active participation and the positive attitude they brought to the event. Special thanks to the students' trade union committee for providing prizes for the participants.'
The sports festival 'We are different, but together we are power!' is a vivid example of the unity of the multinational student family at Polotsk University.
