Odyssey International Days: a community celebration
ST DOMINIQUE, ROME FRENCH INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL recently had the pleasure of organizing the Odyssey International Days, a series of dynamic and intercultural events that highlight diversity and mutual support within our school community. These days have become a must-attend annual event in our network.
A Pedagogical and Festive Event
The Odyssey International Days are a celebration, but also a unique educational opportunity. Through sports workshops, our students had the chance to explore and get introduced to three sports:
- Wrestling initiation – contact game on the mats

Sports at School: A Pillar of Development and Success
Beyond cultural activities, sports play a central role in the personal development of our students at St Dominique. Our sports program is designed to encourage a healthy lifestyle, foster team spirit, and develop essential skills such as perseverance and fair play. Moreover, sports promote self-confidence, stress management, and camaraderie.
Interschool competitions
Our students regularly participate in inter-class or inter-school competitions with the Odyssey group, offering our students the opportunity to compete against their peers and proudly represent their school. These competitions are a source of motivation and pride, and they reinforce the feeling of belonging to a school community.
