This activity was very challenging for us, as we all tried to gather as many batteries as possible. Firstly we introduced to all students what are positive and negative aspects of using batteries. Then we collected them, pupils were creating some posters about batteries to get more deep into this problematic. In the end, we took all dead batteries into recycling centres in order to keep our Earth clean and safe.

In order to get students more involved into the project we created skype communication among our pupils. It is very motivating and challenging for them. We speak over various environmental topic as well as personal questions from everyday students´ lives, so we all learn new things and have fun too.

Third transnational meeting took place in Montgat (Escola Salvador Espriu), near the historic city of Barcelona. The meeting allowed us to see local students on various lessons and how they do environmental activities. The school is so beautiful and students awesome. We met local mayor who is also environmentally thinking in her work. It was unforgettable experience to visit this school, its teachers and students. During the meeting we agreed over the next activities planned for following this school year.

This activity was structured in three levels. First, we explained students the importance of paper in real life. Secondly, we gathered and collected paper. Thirdly, made calculations, percentage, and other maths operation – it was like playing with numbers. Some schools organized excursions into recycling centres. Save the trees!

Recently we have opened etwinning portal for our students to share their ideas, questions and comments about the project activities, schools and the life itself. We see it as very helpful and useful for mutual conversation and bridging the gap among our students. We want to continue with these activities even after the project will be finished.

We organized a special day for all our students to do sport and take exercise in order to be fit and feel healthy. The importance of this day was not to win but ACTIVELY take part in various sport activities. The students created their own posters about healthy way of life. Let´s do sport! See photos in photo album.

Our second meeting was held in Italy, in a beautiful old town – Ortona. We could see amazing students participating on environmental activities at school. We were visiting different classes and see various students who were so eager to participate in this Erasmus project. Many Italian teachers were so enthusiastic about our mutual cooperation so we consider this meeting as very successful and motivating. In the end of the meeting we evaluated the project tasks within the first year of our partnership. Ciao :)

Land art activity was designed for students to work on artistic instalation of things found in nature such as pebbles, berries, stones, cones, branches, leaves, shells, and many more which are naturally scattered in our surounding. These artistic formation and mosaic have different shapes and students tried to organize them into various objects.

 During this activity students together with teachers designed dustbins for waste separation in rainbow colours. They could use whatever material and install them into the classrooms and corridors. The main purpose of this activity was to make students aware of importance of making waste separation. Important thing is also to deminish and reduce the waste itself. The photos are attached in photoalbum "Rainbow activity".

   Our partnership and its activities as well as meeting in Slovakia were also published in local newspapers in Spain and in Italy. See photoalbum section.
