Ancona launches new community parenting and youth sports programs
The city of Ancona has launched several community-focused educational initiatives. The municipality, in collaboration with I.C.A.R.O. APS and the Marche Region, is introducing “Il Tempo di Crescere” (The Time to Grow). This project offers two free dialogue paths for parents to improve communication and awareness within families. One track focuses on children aged 0-6, while the other is tailored for adolescents.
Additionally, the “De Amicis” primary school in Ancona has introduced a new fencing and motor skills project for students in the first three grades. Led by professionals recognized by the Italian Fencing Federation, the program uses play and movement to develop coordination, balance, and emotional management, teaching children to respect rules and interact with peers in a structured sporting environment.
