«In the heart of the city of Cosenza, today we open the doors of the new gym of the Liceo Scorza, more beautiful, more colorful but above all safer for the seismic adaptation works to the new regulations in force. There is nothing more beautiful and exciting for a President of the Province than inaugurating new spaces dedicated to young people where they can relax and have fun practicing sports” – declared the President of the Province, adding that “after having inaugurated a few months ago in this same institute the Aula Magna, we continue with the ribbon cuttings with the certainty that many others will follow because there are many construction sites that we have opened and which we will soon conclude. Have fun guys because it’s your time!”
The works were financed through the measures of the PNRR NEXT GENERATION EU, for the improvement and seismic adaptation of the gym, for an amount of 700,000 euros. The project was approved with managerial resolution no. 1589 of 05.09.2023 and the works were regularly completed and delivered within the scheduled time.
The new structure, modern and functional, represents a significant step towards promoting the physical activity and well-being of students, as well as providing adequate spaces for sporting activities and school competitions.
During her speech, President Succurro also underlined the importance of investing in education and school infrastructure: «The health and well-being of our children are a priority. This new gym is not just a place to practice sports, but an environment that encourages socialisation, aggregation and the development of fundamental values such as respect and fair play”, the comment.
With the conclusion of this project, the Province confirms its commitment to education and sport, convinced that investing in adequate structures contributes to training more active and aware citizens.
