Brother Romania joined the StartEvo Association and the 9th-grade students of C.A. Rosetti Theoretical High School in organizing the StartEvo Treasure Hunt activity that took place during the ALTFEL (DIFFERENT) week. One of the 22 challenges that tested the skills of the 21 teams of high school students was the practical test on Brother equipment, along with a time-limited logic test. The event involved 201 9th-grade students, supported by 50 volunteers from the senior years and 14 teachers.
“Brother Romania is committed to projects organized with great passion by the StartEvo Association. This is not the first time we have collaborated with the association, engaging in informal education projects for children and young adolescents. The StartEvo Association proposes engaging activities with practical experiences that develop both teamwork and individual contribution to solving challenges within a limited time frame. We are impressed by the enthusiasm with which young people participate in these ‘ALTFEL’ activities. Brother’s involvement aligns with our strategy to contribute to a better world for our children,” said Simona Țăndărică, Country Manager of Brother Romania.
The Treasure Hunt had 3 Winning Teams
As part of the VIP Reading Challenge, teams sent VIP requests to celebrities and received filmed public responses from the requested personalities. In the end, the treasure hunt had 3 winning teams that successfully completed all tasks correctly and within the required time to achieve the highest score. Winners and participants received prizes provided by the event’s partners.
“Through activities like Treasure Hunt, the StartEvo Association provides informal education through play, involving young adolescents in a competition of varied activities designed to attract, inspire, and make this week truly ‘DIFFERENT,’ more interesting and useful. What we do is what any parent does for their child: we give young people the motivation to contribute to defining their future,” said Constantin Ferșeta, Vice-President of the StartEvo Association.”
