Thematic tour «Olympic movement in Kazakhstan»

On May 30, 2019, thematic tour “Olympic movement in Kazakhstan” was held in the Library of Elbasy for students of the Specialized children's and youth sports school No. 7 in Nur-Sultan, organized by the National Olympic Committee of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Young athletes also took part in an exciting quest.

The students were greatly impressed by a large collection of sports trophies of Kazakhstan’s champions and personal belongings of athletes, items and archival materials from the personal collections of National Olympic Committee’s presidents.

Participants of the excursion showed special interest to the congratulatory letters of Kazakhstan’s President to Olympic games’ champions of different years, Elbasy's sports uniform in which he took part in the Olympic torch relay of the XXIX Summer Olympic Games, boxing gloves of boxer Serik Sapiev with his autograph, sports jerseys of boxers Daniyar Eleusinov and Vasily Levit and, of course, the championship belts of the world-famous professional boxer Gennady Golovkin, which he handed to N.A. Nazarbayev during his personal meeting with the President.

A distinctive feature of this exhibition is the presence of interactive zones where children could lift the bar, feel like weightlifters, climb the podium under the flag of Kazakhstan and take photos with the growth figures of their favorite athletes.

During the quest, the children answered questions about Kazakhstan's winners of the Olympics, world tournaments and championships with great passion, solved historical facts in the tasks.
