Sports Breaks

At JMSM, we care about students’ health. We are aware that students spend a lot of time in their books studying, to the detriment of their physical condition. However, doing physical activity can in fact improve your performance at school.

Sports have major benefits that can help students. Exercise reduces the amount of stress hormones in the body, resulting in a slower heart rate, relaxed blood vessels, and lower blood pressure. It also boosts blood flow to the brain and helps it receive oxygen and nutrients. The better shape you’re in, the faster you fire brain waves that are responsible for quick thinking.

Thus, JMSM this year will organize Sports Breaks in order to give students a chance to get off their books and do some exercise. Our mission is also to organize the most possible conjointly with other associations/committees, in order to maximize the turnout.
