Global Association of Montessori Education and Sport are proud to announce the location of our second adolescent Global Montessori Games. The event will take place in Heltberg Privat Gymnas, in Drammen, Norway, between Monday 7th of December until Saturday 12th of December 2020, making this our first Winter GMG.

We would like to welcome more teams, from more countries, so there will be 9 teams of 6 students, 3 male and 3 female, to provide more opportunity for participation and a greater mix of cultures.
We suggest that each team be accompanied be 2 coaches, preferably of different gender.

This event is about building a peaceful and better world by practicing sports and making new friendships. Pupils, teachers and school leaders alike, will learn more about different countries, and their cultures, by working together and sharing ideas and practices.

It is not about competition or winning prizes but coming together and participating in sports in the Olympic spirit of fun, friendship, solidarity and fair play.

Again, students will be hosted by host families, who will play an important role of covering Norwegian culture and customs.
