Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study is to determine the level of physical development, nutritional status and physical activity of school-age children who due to the obligations arising from participation in music school classes have limited free time. Material and methods: The material consists of anthropometric measurements and body composition measurements of children aged 11-13 who are students of the music school and their peers attending primary school only. Nutrition indicators were determined and a questionnaire was conducted on the nutrition and physical activity of children. The material was prepared with the use of descriptive statistics methods and using a t-test. Results: The massive body structure and significant body fatness of the students of the music school were shown. Children eat meals irregularly with an improperly balanced menu and do not participate in extracurricular sports activities. Conclusions: High body fat in music school children can be associated with improper nutrition and limited physical activity.
