FRIDAYS FOR FUTURE IN LJUBLJANA


On Friday, 15th of March we went to Congress Square because there was a protest against increasing of climate change, that was organised by Slovenian teenagers and young adults. The project was started by Greta Thunberg in Sweden. She stopped attending school on Fridays and she didn’t plan to come back until The Swedish Government did something about climate change and pollution. Soon her friends and other teenagers all over the world started to join her. The 15th of March 2019 was the day people from more than 100 countries gathered and protested for better future. In Ljubljana there were more than 9 thousand protesters.
We interviewed a few people that attended the protest. We asked why are they here, what Planet B means to them and if they think so many people will make a difference.
The questions we asked: 
Why are you here today? Do you think so many people will make a difference? What is Planet B to you?
The answers we got: - To help accomplish certain changes and I think it’s good that there is so many of us, cause now we have a bigger chance to make a change. - What’s happening to our Earth is not right and we have to come together to stand for better future. - Because I care for our environment and for our future,  we have to make a change now and not in 50 years when it’s to late.

Action and Service Reflection May 2019- Austria

Undertake challenges that develop new skills The Erasmus+ Connected with the Environment Group basically focuses on collaborating and interacting with 4 other schools around Europe. It is a way to bring students together (with different cultural backgrounds and traditions) and challenge them in grouping with the other members, working effectively with one another and learning from each other through different ways. This is done through the different meetings which are organized for each of the four modules which every group from each school has to accomplish different objectives which might include: raising awareness, taking action, gathering data, researching, investigating and many more depending on the module itself and the specific objective that the student has decided to work on. As a member of this group, I think that the most important (if not one of the most frequent learning experiences used) which students have to face with is to undertake challenges and developing new...

Erasmus+ presentations in MSP Paderewski

What have we done during those 2 years? Does everyone know about it? In order to answer those questions we decided to get into the classrooms and show the rest of the school what we have done. It turns out it was quite a lot, because not a single pair could finish in a 15 minute slot...so much to talk about! It was a great opportunity to show everyone how much work and effort we put into it and that it pays off to participate in the project!  We will see what the future brings! Let's hope we will get another project!
