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.

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...

Austria- Erasmus: Connected to the Environment Reflection

Reflection For my Action as Service Group I chose to join the Erasmus: Connected to the Environment Group. In this group we work with 4 other schools from: Croatia, Slovenia, Poland and Greece. We work with these schools to analyze our Communities and connected with each others. During my Year and Half of Working with this School I have seen my Strengths in creating Surveys. In all of 4 parts of the Programm I have dedicated my time to creating, distributing and Analyzing Surveys. These Surveys have been used to analyze the: Technology, Environmental Impact and Relationships with Teachers within our Community. I learnt that my weaknesses are in the Distribution of the Surveys. I sometimes have problems to finding the time to actually ask people. Now I try to fix this by thinking ahead and prioritizing distribution over everything else. I hope to continue to help this Program and analyze more aspects of our Community.
