Since 1961, Spuerkeess has been inviting primary school children from cycle 2.1 to attend a play developed especially for them. The aim of this tradition is to teach students the value of saving in a playful way. To encourage saving, Spuerkeess gives the children a “Spuerbéchs” piggy bank and a gift voucher worth EUR 50, to be credited to a Tweenz savings account.
You can't think about School Savings Day ("Fêtes de l'Epargne Scolaire") without also remembering the "Spuerbéchs"! Most of us still remember this special day in primary school, where we received our very first piggy bank from Spuerkeess. School Savings Day and the famous piggy banks are closely linked and represent the first occasion for children to learn about saving money.
Read the articleIt all began with the Spuerkeess’ statutory mission of promoting saving in all its forms within the population of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. As a result, the famous Schoulspuerfester are deeply rooted in the history of Spuerkeess and in Luxembourg’s long tradition of financial education. Lisa Wells, Vice President & Head of Business Unit Marketing at Spuerkeess, explains the importance of this annual event.
We all need a financial literacy. Teaching children the basics about how money works, its value and why to save it can spare them so much hassle as adults.
