Erasmus + opens horizons

During the days from July 4 to 8, the last meeting was held on the Erasmus + project, “Future cities – smart and sustainable solutions”, which was won by our school. The Erasmus+ program created another opportunity for teachers and students from Romania, Greece, Poland, Slovakia and Bulgaria to enjoy experiences that cannot be repeated. Five wonderful days filled with deep emotions,  diverse activities and making many friendships. The students and teachers liked our school, the garden and the dormitory where they were accommodated. We – teachers, students and other staff from Bourgas – acted as a well-oiled machine. All activities were done on time and with high quality. There was no end to the surprises of the hosts – a barbecue was organized for the guests in the beautiful yard of our school, as well as a cinema screening. Our guests had the opportunity to enjoy interesting initiatives – to watch how a pie is made at the Biotiful farm, as well as to make a pizza themselves. Separately, they got acquainted with an example of circular economy and permaculture, i.e. ecological agriculture in harmony with the laws of nature. History and culture were our ideas for visiting Sozopol and the island of St. Anastasiya. Work on the project was not left behind either. In several workshops, teachers and students created the final project document. Interesting “smart and sustainable” solutions for the urban environment were proposed. Students from each country will create an electronic and printed version of the proposed ideas, which they will introduce to the authorities. Another initiative was the presentation of objects made by the different schools with the project logo and inscriptions on how to take care for nature. As a wonderful end to a fantastic experience, the hosts gave colorful t-shirts on which their guests had to write messages about nature and its conservation. This grew into exchanging memories and signing those same t-shirts. It was a wonderful event. It was a wonderful visit. It was great. Friendships were formed, there was laughter and merriment. Our students did a great job with their assignments. They behaved like real hosts, for which we thank them.

Erasmus + opens horizons – to travel, to learn, to get to know new cultures, to create friendships that last over time! It’s summer! Now it’s time to relax – after taking stock of a job well done!

Yii! Awaiting new horizons!
