Within the framework of the Music Connects Us - Accredited Youth Exchange project, we welcomed a group of young people from North Macedonia, who brought new energy, culture and many memorable moments to our community. During the programme, participants took part in team-building activities, interactive workshops, sports activities, swimming, cultural presentations and various group challenges. These shared activities provided opportunities for the young people to get to know

The Kállósemjéni Diákokért és Ifjakért Egyesület’s “Our Talents in Mind Sports” talent development programme, implemented between 1 September 2025 and 31 August 2026, has come to an end. During the programme, 22 young people participated in development activities based on mind sports.

Our players participated in the 46th Golden Prague international draughts tournament in Prague, where they had the opportunity to test their skills against a strong international field. The classical 100-square international draughts tournament, held between 17–23 August 2026, required several days of serious concentration, perseverance, strategic thinking, and competitive experience from the participants. Our players’ results: Uzonyi Péter – 19th place, 9 points Bettembuk Ná

Music, tradition and learning together remain at the heart of the “Bridges Through Musical Instruments” project, implemented with the support of the Csoóri Sándor Fund. During the sessions, participants explore the world of the zither and violin, while gradually developing their musical skills, concentration and perseverance. Practising together gives the children the opportunity to engage more confidently with instrumental music and experience the joy of playing melodies tog

The professional work of the programme continued during the summer period as well. During the draughts sessions, participants continued practising conscious move planning, evaluating decision-making situations and adapting to their opponent’s play. During the games played together, independent thinking and learning from one another became increasingly important. The young participants evaluated game situations with greater confidence, while their concentration, patience and s

Every melody carries a story. During the sessions of the “Bridges Through Musical Instruments!” project, participants discover the treasures of Hungarian folk music through the violin and zither, while becoming increasingly confident in playing their instruments. Through learning together, they master new melodies, explore Hungarian folk music traditions and experience growing joy in making music together. Every session offers a new opportunity for development, shared experie

Between July 3-8, 2026, we organised a draughts camp within the framework of project NTP-TEHETSEG-25-0149. The aim of the camp was to support the development of talented young people interested in mind sports, deepen their knowledge of draughts, and strengthen their strategic thinking, concentration, problem-solving skills and ability to adapt to competitive situations. During the programme, participants took part in professional sessions, practice games, analyses and communi

Melodies | Development | Shared Experiences Every melody begins with a single note – and this is how our ZENE–25 – Classics in the Language of Rock! project began as well. Over the past months, the participating children and young people had the opportunity to explore the world of guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, and drums. The sessions were not only about developing instrumental skills, but also about building self-confidence, perseverance, cooperation, and experiencing the j

On June 25, 2026, we organised a bicycle tour within the framework of project NTP-TEHETSEG-25-0149. The aim of the programme was to provide the participating children and young people with a community-based, experience-oriented activity alongside the professional and development sessions. The bicycle tour offered a good opportunity for physical activity, recreation, paying attention to one another and strengthening cooperation as a team. For us, talent development means not o

During the programme sessions, young people develop their logical thinking, attention and foresight in a playful way. In draughts, even a single decision can change the course of a game, so participants continuously practise careful planning and considering the consequences. Practising together also provides an opportunity for the young people to observe, discuss and evaluate one another’s solutions. In this way, mind sports offer challenge, a sense of achievement, learning a

During the sessions of the “Bridges Through Musical Instruments!” project, progress is not just about individual practice. Through making music together, participants experience that the most beautiful melodies are created when they listen to one another and work together towards a common goal. The sounds of the violin and zither bring new experiences to every session. Small achievements, melodies played together and a positive atmosphere all contribute to making learning enj

Zene-25-0014 Learning music is not only about notes, but also about perseverance, self-confidence, and shared achievements. During the sessions of the ZENE–25 project, participants gain new experiences each time while becoming increasingly confident in using their instruments. With the help of guitars, drums, and keyboards, the young participants not only develop their technical skills but also experience what it feels like to create together as part of a team. Paying attenti

An important phase of AktionKlub has come to an end. The closing event of the “AktionKlub: Take Action, Stand Up for Your Community!” project provided an opportunity to review the programmes we implemented together, evaluate our experiences, and plan how to continue in the future. During the meeting, the young people looked back together on the events of the past period, discussed the experiences and skills they had gained, and explored how the community, cooperation, and ini

This year, the young people of AktionKlub also took an active role in the Children’s Day programmes, making the day even more colourful with creative activities, group games, and support in organising and running the event. The children could take part in various arts and crafts activities, where they were free to use their imagination while the young people helped and supported them in creating their works. The programme is closely connected to the objectives of AktionKlub,

Draughts requires concentration, patience and foresight at the same time. During the sessions, the young participants learn step by step how to plan ahead, how to pay attention to their opponent’s decisions, and how to choose from several possible solutions. Every game creates a new learning situation. A successful move can reinforce a conscious strategy, while analysing a mistake helps participants recognise what they can do differently next time. In this way, playing togeth

During the rehearsals, more and more new musical ideas and shared experiences are coming to life. The participants are continuously improving their instrumental skills, while becoming increasingly confident in trying out their own rhythms, melodies, and creative solutions. Alongside making music together, attention, cooperation, and finding one’s own place within the shared sound also play an important role. Classical motifs come to life in a modern and energetic form through

During the Erasmus+ mobility project, we had the opportunity to gain insight into the fields of disaster management, emergency preparedness, and search and rescue operations. On the first day of the programme, we were introduced to the host organisation, the objectives of the project, and the basic principles of disaster management and civil protection. We also took part in an introductory programme organised by AFAD, where we learned about rescue operations and disaster resp

In the “Bridges Through Musical Instruments!” project, making music together brings new energy to every session. As participants learn to play the violin, cello, zither and cimbalom, they are not only learning musical notes, but also how to listen to one another, think together and grow together. Through practising together, the participants become increasingly coordinated, and every melody they play helps build a stronger community. Music becomes a genuine connection between
