Setting Goals for Fifa’s School Adventure
My 2010 School Adventure Scores with Schools
My 2010 School Adventure was an interactive edutainment program that ran concurrently with The Fifa World Cup in 2010, instilling Fifa’s values of diversity and humanity to learners and educators. The campaign ran for two years leading up to the main event, including the Confederations Cup, where the journey began. Learners across the rainbow nation were inspired to Adopt a School and learn about different countries’ cultures and customs, beyond the world of football.
ONCE UPON A TIME
The brief was to communicate the participation and education of all SA learners via an interactive on air and on the ground campaign to inculcate the Fifa values of culture, Ubuntu and humanity.
BRAND STORY
The campaign was created and driven by Creatrix. My 2010 School Adventure was the banner under which all school activity and activations took place.
SYNERGY
My 2010 School Adventure was driven by its integration above below and through the line. From talent searches to ceremony flag bearers, art competitions to radio programming the campaign touched every learner in South Africa over its three-year lifespan.
HAPPILY EVER AFTER
The campaign was exposed across South Africa and was taken up by schools and curricula across the education spectrum. The campaign is presented all over the world as the benchmark for participation and excellence at The Fifa World Cup.
