The mayor of La Victoria de Acentejo, Juan Antonio García Abreu, highlighted the importance of education in preventing and developing healthy habits for student well-being. He noted that the initiative seeks to provide comprehensive and accessible information on health care.
García Abreu also thanked the collaboration of teachers, school management teams, and the health and security personnel involved in organizing the event.
The Councilor for Social Welfare, Sonia Hernández, emphasized the active participation of students in creating the campaign's image and slogan. The winning image, by Yared Armas Izquierdo, a second-grade primary student, features the chestnut as the symbol of the workshops. The slogan proposed by class 1º A of ESO from IES La Victoria was ‘With Tostadita you take care of your diet and add a little zest to your heart’.
The initiative is supported by professionals from the La Victoria de Acentejo Health Center, municipal social services, and the Traffic Civil Guard.
