He didn’t leave his commitment to children and young people behind when he quit his job, but always carries with him ideas about how to socialize and engage the youngsters. The game is flexible, which allows kids to participate and come up with their own ideas.Īfter some years as an Oslo resident, Audun moved back to Hamar with his family in 2009, bringing a fresh outlook with him back to his hometown. The vision is to increase both physical activity and creativity among children, as they are also encouraged to find their own tricks, games and rules to use this creative game. One of the rules is that the kids have to design and paint their own board. He currently combines teaching at Storhamar Primary School with developing a new ball game called Brettball, an interesting game which wittily combines creativity with physical sport.
Since he has been working as a Primary School teacher for the last 17 years, he has a great knowledge and concern about the grown-up conditions in Hamar, and the lack of programming for children and adolescents. Let’s start from the beginning.Īudun Jensen was one of the first people who wrote to us and joined the on-site workshops held in the Bazaar building. But the day before there were just a few invited children gathered to switch toys and get to know each other – and to talk about their use of the city. The open event Playhamar took place in the Bazaar building on Saturday, the 19th of November, with pupils specially invited from 11 schools and kids from 32 kindergartens. Today, 31 children from the Ankerløkka and Sagatun kindergarten are gathered to talk about the city and Stortorget, but it’s hard to keep their attention since, in the back of the room stands a long table covered with toys. Typical answers from many of them are the names of stores or restaurants, and the absence of activities related to play, fun and exploring. I am surrounded by children aged 2 to 6 years old in the Bazaar building, who a few minutes earlier had crawled through the door, and are now telling me how they use the center of Hamar. “I visit Burger King with my family!” “I always drop by Fraspark on Saturdays!” Loud consensus ensues. 8.30am-5.00pm outside of these hours only emergency safeguarding calls will be taken).Children in the city – what role do they have?
