Connected with the Environment

Starting our work on Module 4! At ISC (Austria) for the past 3 weeks we have started working on the Module 4 Objectives. Among all the members we have split our work between all the objectives to create equal work load. Now, that everyone is aware of what they need to work on for next meeting in May, the work has started! A part from the Objectives, we have also focused on inviting parents and students form our school in hosting a student for the  meeting in May. 

At ISC we started planning some gifts to give for the guests at our Module 4 meeting in May. Since our Module is Ecology, we decided to think of eco-friendly gifts, such as bamboo products, wood materials, etc.. Below you can find a list of our initial ideas for the gifts which we brainstormed as a group. Our initial ideas where: An eco pencil case Bamboo pencils Small wooden cube containing seeds Pencils  Bag made of Eco-friendly materials Pens Bracelets made of recycled plastic t-shirts  After we brainstormed our ideas, we finalized them in order to order them right away and prepare them for the meeting in May. 

Working on Module 4 We have decided which students are going to travel to Austria. Here is a list of the students traveling: Dimitris Keramidas Giorgos Bousmpouras Konstantinos Barmpounis Konstantinos Rouptsos Giorgos Karadakis Elena Kralli As well as deciding the students that will travel, we have also assigned new bloggers.

The erasmus trip to Greece was extremely interesting, intriguing and fun. During our stay we stayed with host families that were all very nice and hospitable. Learning about Greek culture and customs was very intriguing. One of he first things I noticed was there driving, most drivers do not respect road markings and signs. At the school we learnt about 3D printing and designing. Then we designed the erasmus logo throughout the week. We also had a cool treasure hunt around the school in which my group won. We also had excursions were we were able to visit the acropolis and all the building on it. We also had a very interesting tour of Mycenae and Nafplio wich were very enjoyable places. We also eat delicious food like souvlaki. We also played different games like card games with the other students there. This an absolutely amazing experience and I hope I can participate in more events like this. The erasmus project is a very good way to learn about new cultures and explor

Hello everyone! We were excited to go to Athens because there are many famous landmarks and sights that we could not wait to visit. All of us were also very happy that we would finally see our old friends and meet new ones. Even though the school isn’t located in the center of Athens we still went on a trip there. We visited The Acropolis Museum and Acropolis. Acropolis was our favorite part of the trip. This wasn’t our only trip, we also went to Nafplio and Mycenae and enjoyed it.  When we were not on trips we were making the parts of the project logo that we assembled on the last day. On the last day, we also played some board games and talked to each other. Unfortunately, we had to say goodbye that day which we were very sad to do.  We made wonderful memories and many friendships during our stay in Athens.  Thank you, CGS for hosting us and for this experience.
