Parents of children with developmental delays and anyone interested could receive specialist advice during the festival. A psychologist, educator and speech therapist were available to answer questions. There were also stands run by the Polish Red Cross and the addiction-prevention centre.
The Canon and Mały Bolesławiec ensembles performed on stage. The Bolesławiec brass band also played. Competitions for children were held away from the stage, including art, reading and skill-based contests. Numerous prizes awaited the participants, including sweets, fruit juices and toys donated by sponsors. There was also a “colourful face” stand where children’s faces were painted with colourful paints. Everyone interested could enjoy a horse ride, with the animals assisting in hippotherapy.
The integration festival was organised thanks to the involvement of many people and institutions. “I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the sponsors, institutions, educators and everyone who helped organise this festival,” said Danuta Stefanów, director of the Powiatowy Zespół Szkół Specjalnych.
