Hi everybody

Better later than never. We enjoyed our trip to Slovenia tremendously and so did our pupils. They have written the letters below.

I think that our trip to Slovenia has been exciting. All the things that I have seen and the people that I have met. I think that the Slovene people have been so nice to us and I am thankful for that. I hope that more kids/young people will get the same opportunity as me, because you are getting stronger as a person and you learn to take more care of yourself and of other people. You also learn to communicate with other people in English and explain in an other way if there is someone who do not understand you or you do not understand them.
The girl I stayed with was so nice to me and her family too. And they helped me to get a fantastic stay. If I needed anything, I just ask them and they helped me the best they could, so thanks for that. One of hundred good things they did, was that they learned me some thing about their culture and the city they lived in.
Of course there are some cultural differences but I think that we have a lot in common Slovenia and Denmark. And that is a good example of that we are all people. One of the biggest challenges was the food, because the Slovene traditional food and the Danish traditional food have nothing in common. But I only find it interesting to taste some other things and see how other people are doing traditional things.

I think it was fun, challenging and exiting to be in Slovenia. It was fun to see another culture than ours. I think it was fun to talk English a lot. I have learned a lot of English on this trip. The family I lived in was sweet and nice and I have had a very good time. I was so happy to live with them in the week. I have got some good friends from another country it is really nice. I think it was good there also because we met some students from other countries. It was a very nice experience. We were in a cinema and see Due Date, it was fun to come home and say to my brother when he saw the movie at the premiere that I had seen it. I didn’t understand all they said but I understood most of it. It was an extremely good opening show both in the evening and the morning! It was fun that they had made a dance from the different countries. In Slovenia they like to decorate their trees outside with Christmas candles and it was very beautiful. I am so happy to get this chance to come to another country and learn a lot.

Perleberg, März 2011

During our two years work in the EUROPEAN COMENIUS PROJECT “Water, water, everywhere, nor any drop to drink” we have learned a lot about water.
For example: We visited the waterwork which is supplying the drinking water for the town of Perleberg and its villages nearby.
It was very interesting to get to know that only about 1% of the total amount of water on earth is fresh water, also called sweet water!
And in Germany, each person uses at least 100 litres per day!
That is a lot. And we can be sure that we get pure fresh water, because many people in these waterworks care for that.
But millions of people, especially the poor in Africa and Southeast Asia, they don’t have pure and healthy water to drink. They get ill by drinking polluted water.
What can we do?
We don’t waste water, when we do our daily washing and cleaning.
We take care of our clothes. If we want to play outside, we will take older clothes for that reason. So they don’t have to be washed every day.
We don’t pour any things into the toilet or into the wash basin that could pollute our drinking water.
It is good for all of us that people like you are engaged in protecting our environment. Thank you for your work. We wish you a successful work!

LETTER TO THE AUTHORITIES OF GRAVINA IN P.

To the Authorities

of

Gravina in Puglia

We are the students of 5° “A” and 5° “B” of IV CIrcolo T.Fiore Primary School and we are kindly asking a little of your time to listen to our request.

Since last year we’re been working on a Comenius European Project about water’s importance called “Water, water everywhere nor any drop to drink” with other European Partners:Spain, Germany, Danmark, Belgium, UK, Slovenia, Slovakia, Italy. During the project time, we wonder how much the water is a protect resource in our territory: well! What we have found out isn’t positive at all! Because just out of Gravina, there are open – sky sewers and in the historical center of Gravina there’s a wonderful torrent which flows on a bed of rubbish. What we ask You is an intervention in order to save the health of all Gravina’s citizens: You should check waste water, in order to avoid underground’s pollution and to safeguard the beauty of our landscape, cleaning the torrent and making, in this way, the “Gravina” comes back a natural spectacle. Besides, thanks to this project, we’re taking awareness of water’s importance and of how often it is wasted because of our behaviour.

A thing now is clear: the water is a too much precious good, and that’s why it must be safeguarded and protected from any form of pollution.

We would like to take the opportunity for inform You that our european partners will be guests in our city from 28^th of March to 1^st of April 2011, so we ask You to meet the foreign delegation in our town hall, during their stay in Gravina. Thank You for your availability and we wish You a good work.

Best Regards

Slovenian mobility

Dear friends,

The week from 6th- 10th December was a great and memorable experience. I think my colleagues and our students did their best to show you our school life, our friendliness and our openess.We also tried to show you a small part of our country. I think we will all keep this week in a nice memory.

Hope to have a nice experience in Italy, too. It will be very nice to see you all again.

Keep working on the project but also enjoy life! The days pass by too quickly and so does our project...

“It deserves another visit”

I never imagined Comenius could be such a rewarding experience for me.
I would like to emphasize the hospitality of its people that made us feel like one more in that country.
Thanks to Lili and her family for taking us at home. You are so charming!

Just like I’m very grateful to Tina (Slovenian’s coordinator) for all her dedication and enthusiasm in everything that she organized. From the activities in the school to those we can enjoyed in the beautiful surroundings. She was attentive to every one of us at all times.
Big thank you!

Thank you! Five stars for Denmark and Slovenia!

Dear friends, thank you for your great caring during our comenius meetings in Denmark and Slovenia. In Denmark we enjoyed very much our staying in the families and the program for our students. In Slovenia we were very impressed about the school building and the very special sights. We felt very welcomed in both of the countries because of your great hospitality. We wish all partners a Merry Christmas time and a happy new year. Ursula, Berit, Yvonne, Peter

NATURE AND DANISH EDUCATION

Denmark has a very interesting
measures for student well-being and motivation.
As we could see in RAVNSHOLTSKOLEN School, they use a special model
that combines traditional teaching methods with other active projects that create a learning environment. The teacher’s role is very
flexible and this helps provide high
levels of intrinsic motivation. At the school, we could see how the the Green Caravan project worked, in small groups and using constructive methodogy. Children had to research different proposals, such as renewable energy, global warming effects, growing plants and small ecosystem, or the difference between nature and quimical products we can find in the shops for our nutrition. We can not forget the Nature House "Vestre Hus Bornenaturcenter", where we could enjoy discovering how the children got closer to alife animals and insects thanks to the great biologist Bjørli Martha Lehrmann.
So many interesting ideas! Sure we are dedicating one week in Spring time at school, call the "the Green Week" to show our pupils new ways of working, the Danish way in C.P.R. Al-Dehecún- Spain.

THANK YOU FROM SPAIN

Dear Comenius sailors,
Some unexpected changes have happened in this last month, I have received a new permanent school destination by the Educative Authorities for the next school year, I am leaving this nice school and I have been forced to say bye bye to all this Comenius wonderful partnership.
With this breve speech I just want to thank your commendable work, affection and well done teaching about our common aim; as ‘one sky’ says ‘together we can win’ working together in our common environmental topic such as water.
It has been a pleasure to share with you this work year. It has been and it will be an unforgettable experience.
I would like to encourage you with the continuity of this Comenius Project with your pupils.
Thanks again for all your wonderful everyday work. You will be always with me.

GERMANY COMENIUS EXPERIENCES

Dear partners,
We are nearly by the end of this school year and we have lived many experiences during all these time. Our gratitude to Ursula, Peter and all the teacher staff for their great job in Germany. So a green land! It was amazing to see how much water you have everywhere... our Comenius project is great in this sense, to see how many differences and similitudes we can see in the different contries. However about our experience in Perleberg I must focus our attention to the pupils experiences there: sport time, experiments, canoe and the exchange with other students from Germany, Slovenia and Slovakia. Comenius contributed to open their mind, to know other cultures in Europe and to share with others. Moreover, they had the oportunity to practise the English language in a real context and to do new penfriend or Internet partners. When they came to school and explained to all the students their experiences, our pupils were very enthusiastic about it and about the Comenius meaning. I feel very proud of so many teachers working for our project; a better world and citizenship cannot be done without all our efford in common, so thanks a lot for your perseverance and hard work in our first part of the project.
Our best regards from Spain,
to all the sailors of this wonderful project.
