Registration for the 19th<\/sup> Annual National Franciscan Olympiad of Knowledge on St. Maximilian is underway for the 2024-25 school year. Elementary and secondary school students are invited to participate.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The competition attracts wide attention. Its goal is to teach the younger generation about Father Rajmund Kolbe (St. Maximilian Mary Kolbe). He was an exceptional man, best known as the Martyr of Auschwitz, who symbolizes the victims of German Nazism. Through the Olympiad, participants will be able to learn about the saint\u2019s life; they will get to know him as a priest, a missionary, the founder of the Niepokalan\u00f3w Friary, the editor of the Knight of the Immaculata<\/em> magazine, a great scientist, an excellent mathematician, and an entrepreneur. He was a man of extraordinary strength of spirit, who entrusted his entire life to the Mother of God. The Olympiad also promotes the saint among young people as a model of industriousness, humility and openness to others. By learning more about St. Maximilian, participants in the competition can find insights into Mary. They can learn to trust her without reservation and let their lives be guided by love of neighbor. We can assure all those who are thinking about taking part in the Olympiad that it is an unforgettable adventure with the saint.
\nThe Olympiad is organized by the Conventual Franciscans in cooperation with the Cardinal Stefan WYSZY\u0143SKI University in Warsaw. It is organized on three educational levels: an art competition for elementary school grades kindergarten to 5; a knowledge competition for elementary school grades 6-8; and another knowledge competition for secondary school students. Students competing in the art contest are asked to illustrate an event from the life of St. Maximilian chosen by the organizers. Students in the knowledge contest are asked to familiarize themselves with the biography of St. Maximilian, based on some designated reading about the martyr and a particular book from Holy Scripture. In addition to the knowledge and inspiration gained, participants can win valuable prizes. In the case of the knowledge contest, the prizes include high-quality electronic equipment and university textbooks, which give the participants a head start on their studies. Registration for the competition is carried out with a catechist or a teacher at the beginning of the school year. The Olympiad rules, entry form and detailed information are available at olimpiada.franciszkanie-warszawa.pl.
\nThe 19th<\/sup> National Franciscan Olympiad of Knowledge about St. Maximilian is held under the honorary patronage of the Minister of National Education. Applications can be sent to: olimpiada@franciszkanie-warszawa.pl<\/a>.<\/p>\n
