Visit to Cannistrá

 

We are so thankful with the citizens from Cannistra. They tought us a great lesson: one of the best ways to promote their town is through decorating it with murals and recycled elements.

CONSTRUCTION OF ANIMALS USING RECYCLED PAPER MACHE

 

Students from D'Alcontres school have created different animals by using recycled paper.

D'Alcontres school

 Today has been a very exciting day: we arrived to D'Alcontres school, a place that has so much experiences with Erasmus+.

                      

One of the first things the school staff did was provide us with an identification badge

                                         

We met face to face for the first time with our partners at D'Alcontres School. We couldn’t have had a better welcome, with traditional dances, a music concert, and a tour of the school’s facilities.

We arrived to the school with the Spanish pet called "Windy" (a cloud), and we changed it with the Italian team

CARNIVAL PARADE

 The traditional Carnival parade for all students has been organized. To prepare for it, they first designed their costumes at school, which were made from recycled materials and were closely related to the theme of air.

Hot Air balloons

 Our students from Kindergarten have created their hot air balloon. It is an amazing means of transportation because the impact on the environment is much lower than many other means of transportation.

MANOS UNIDAS, "THE HUMAN EFFECT"

 We have collaborated with the organization Manos Unidas in an activity focused on the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals). The organization created a wordplay with the Spanish acronym “ODS,” giving it a meaningful twist:

• Observe the world around you.

• Discover the inequalities that threaten many people.

• Sum up: Get involved to make a difference.

This year’s campaign, titled “The Human Effect,” is closely related to caring for the environment. For this reason, a session was dedicated to recording a video to raise awareness about the importance of the SDGs.

                                   

Renewable energy projects

 Students have been raising awareness about the importance of caring for our planet for months. That’s why we took advantage of the Science class to research about renewable energy sources. After gathering information, they worked in groups to create a project about renewable energies.

                                       

                                                                            Wind energy

                                           

                                                                        Hydraulic energy

                                             

                                                                                  Solar energy

                                              

                                                                           Thermal energy

Biomass energy

Sound energy

Light energy

      Fossil fuel power plant

                                                                        Nuclear power plant

Finally, we put all the projects together with their explanations in order to teach other students about the renewable energies
