Our initiative: STOP plastic bags and disposable plastic packaging



On Friday, April 12th, CRO project’s eco-team conducted a couple of workshops  to raise ecological awareness.  The main title was:  STOP plastic bags and disposable plastic packaging.

Eco-team has displayed educational facts on the board so the students and the guests could inform themselves about plastic noxiousness in general, especially about the negative effects of disposable plastic packaging on the environment. To set an example, they were handing out linen bags instead of plastic ones to all students who have participated in the workshops. The linen bags were sewn by students who attend extracurricular activities in the school. Some of the bags had the school motto stamped on it (“Prva je prva“ or “First is the first” ) and some bags were blank so the students had the opportunity to paint them themselves.

Furthermore, students were watching short educational movies about plastic pollution and the negative effects it has on plant and animal life. 

In the end, students were offered to calculate their ecological footprint which they did with interest.

Preparing for Velden vist

Today was a very busy day for Polish students :) We had to prepare some gifts for our Erasmus friends, but the process went quite smoothly. It was a lot of fun as we could also see some organisational differences between them and notice that everyone has our own way of putting the stickers onto the eco- notepad. How do you find our gifts? Boys vs girls

ERASMUS / Module 3 / Not getting hurt online / Paul and Thomas

Thomas and myself worked on this special part of the third erasmus connected with the environment module. At first only myself (Paul) completed the module, but later on Thomas joined in, as he himself did no longer have any work to do. Together we wrote down a skript, which we were going to present to the whole MYP in our school. And so we did! At first the skript was overviewed by one of our teachers, to see if there was anything missing, but then we were ready to go. In addition I created a poster to hang up in our school building. This poster represented the most important facts about using technology and the harms it has to be online/on social media. A total of 5 posters were hung up in our school and greatly appreciated by the students as well as the teachers.

Finalizing Gifts for 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.
