In the Interwar period, the order was able to open more schools in Lida, Szczuczyn Nowogródzki, and Lubieszów. The school in Rakowice was modern and comfortable and enjoyed a growing reputation among wealthy Polish society. The Rakowice school took great care of the physical development of young people. The article uses source materials describing the physical education of this institution. In this school, sport was considered to be an important educational factor, and the monks also saw it as an element of improving health, hygiene and finally, civic education. Polish society and the Polish state needed educated and healthy youth. However, it should be noted that this school was an elite, paid school, attended by children from wealthy families who were more aware of the importance of sport. This also contributed to the fact that the gymnasium had great facilities for practising sports, which many excellent secondary schools of that period could envy. ER -
