The Ministry of Education, in the presence of His Excellency the Vice Minister of Education for General Education, Dr. Saad Al-Harbi, and several leaders, launched the “An Hour for Your Health 2026" event. The event is held over two days at the Ministry's headquarters in Riyadh. It is part of the Ministry's awareness programs aimed at enhancing the quality of life and raising health awareness among male and female employees. The event coincides with the International Day of Sport and World Health Day.

“An Hour for Your Health" offers a package of awareness and interactive activities, including conducting essential tests to measure the general health indicators of employees, such as blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and physical fitness. In addition, the program provides preventive consultations that focus on strategies to reduce obesity smoking, while also promoting healthy daily habits.

The event featured several motor rehabilitation stations supervised by physical therapy specialists who assessed movement and provided guidance. It also included live demonstrations and interactive simulations in collaboration with sports organizations and federations. Additionally, there were smart nutrition programs that offered healthy alternatives and organic products, as well as activities focused on mental fitness through competitions and games designed to enhance mental abilities.

Through this initiative, the Ministry of Education seeks to adopt quality programs that promote health awareness and contribute to building a more vibrant educational community by establishing healthy practices in the work environment and encouraging active, balanced lifestyles.
