Third day in Rumania

The third day we went through the mountains, visiting a museum with animals and then a cave in a magnificent natural environment.

more information to come.

Second day in Romania

It has been raining since we arrived, no not the first day that it was really nice. The first day we visited the school where we were divided into different groups.

Then we visited a mud volcano.

A reflection from one of the students:

The Erasmus trip has been a different experience. The primary aim of the trip was to be aware of why we should protect the environment, and I feel like I have learnt a lot about this topic. Through different activities, I am now fully aware of the environmental issues and how we can prevent it. For example, we visited the mud volcanoes in Magura and learnt about the place and how pollution is threatening and polluting the volcanoes. The trip was a good experience which allowed me to be fully aware of environmental issues and the importance of it.

First day in Romania

Started very early in a very snowy Stockholm Sweden at 4:45 at Arlanda Terminal 2.

It was Daniel, Ms. Anneli, Yoonsik, Alejandro, Axel and Ms. U. We flew with AirBerlin in an almost empty plane. The boys could spread out in it and sleep, but they did not, instead they had a deep conversation.

During the day we saw some proof of recycling awareness in Bucharest.

The boys got some LIE to spend in one of the biggest mals of Europe.

Axel bought a set of cards with strange advices on how to socialise with the other gender. 

Ms. Anneli enlightened him with some life skills contradicting the cards. 

The boys are now with their host families and we are at the hotel.

We missed one of the students, Giordan, but heard from her mum that she was coming with another plane due to some misunderstandings. Actually she is on her way right now. Ms. Anneli will go to Bucharest and meet her in half an hour . The head master for the school we are visting has arranged a ride with his car and a driver who speaks nothing but Rumanian, but Ms. Anneli will manage through body language and gestures as the drama teacher she is.

The field trip to Romania is coming very fast now

We will hold a meeting for students and their parents for information on the Romanian trip. The meeting will be this Thursday at 3:30 in the main building.

Here is the homepage for the school:

The country which name have many spellings of it....

I read the poster for making bags that Carmen and Minjeung did, which I had read before the printed it out. And all of a sudden I thought, oh!!!! so the country which we will go to next is not spelled correctly, and if so that would be my fault as being the teacher. But then when I looked it up I now know that it can be spelled in different ways in English. Rumania, Romania and Roumania. (tle last one gets a red underline from Google though as if spelled wrong).

Reduce Reuse Recycle

Reduce Reuse Recycle

Things we  should all do

Everyone plays their part

Still Ill being talking to all of you

 

All day everyday

Instead of paying money

Pay back the environment you live in

Cause wasting products ain’t funny

What others discard, we spare

Creating bags out of thin air

Using used t-shirts for others to share

Selling for a reasonable fare

T-shirts, pants, shoes you name it

For other valuables we trade it

But if torn dont worry

Something for others we’ll it

In the future our children

Will know the difference we gave them

So contribute now

So we don't rely on someone else to save them

Starting doing some bags as inspiration

We got some bags from AI's class where he stressed sustainable design.
And M and C started sewing.

The group going to Romania started rehearsing on the play

The other students promoted the competition by visiting all classes in the annexe informing of the idea.

Today we got five new students

We divided all students in four groups, Poetry, Collectingboxes for used T-shirts, Poster for the Bag  Competition, and a investigation and plan for how we can implement a better system for bins in all class rooms.

The core group for this coming year 2016/2017

10 new and old students signed up for enrichment, this will be a great year!

Minjeung, Disha, Olivia, Yoonsik, Carmen, Daniel, Emma, Alejandro, Giordan, Axel

First lesson we tried to get to know each other through numbers. The bag that I have worked on as a reused one is not so suitable since I found out from Ms. Celino that the material in VHS-tapes are poisoned. So we need to think it over.
