Postal Adventures - Polish Post

Postal Adventures

A journey into the world of post

"Postal Adventures" is an original program of the Poczta Polska Group Foundation, thanks to which the youngest learn about the world of post, the journey of a letter and parcel, the work of a postman and the role of Poczta Polska as a national operator, present in the lives of successive generations and being an important part of the history of communication in Poland.

The program includes two complete lesson plans designed for preschoolers and grades 1-3 of primary school. Each guides children step-by-step through their next postal adventure – from their first contact with mail, through creative play with mailing, to joyful holiday experiences.

In the 2025/2026 school year, the program was implemented nationwide. In the 2026/2027 school year, we invite preschools and primary schools to participate in a new format, based on individual applications from schools and direct contact with the Poczta Polska Group Foundation.
