Have a look below at all the mobilities so far.

27th November to 03 December 2022

Our first mobility has taken place in November and we have travelled to Campulung, in Romania. The school Dinicu Golescu has welcomed us and has given us a taste of what romanian culture is like. 

3 teachers and 5 students have participated in this exchange experience to start working on the project. Students have made presentations on the social and economic benefits of recycling and have participated in different workshops concerning recycling processes in Romania. 

Here are the videos that summarize each day of our mobility in Romania. 

We have also interviewed some teachers so that they can get to know them at our school. 

6th to 10th March 2023

Our second mobility has taken place in march 2023. 6 students and 2 teachers have travelled to Osnabrück, in Germany, to continue working on our recycling project. 

This time, students have prepared their presentations on the collection and recycling of plastic processes. We had a busy schedule all week, including a trip to a recycling center in Osnabrück, a workshop to create an anthem for our project and other workshops to upcycle clothes and reuse different materials.

Today, our Erasmus+ students have had the chance to and  enjoy a day out with the whole school. 

We have designed a sports day to promote healthy habits. All of our students have worn a T-shirt specially designed for the occasion with the logo of our project. The money collected from the T-shirts and the activities will be donated to a charity that works on recycling. 

The day has started with a walk from the school to the sports center of Cártama. There, students and teachers have competed on our traditional race and have had the opportunity to participate in different sports activities. We have finished our morning with a paella made by the AMPA of the school.

Today we have visited La Alhambra. Both teachers and students have been delighted with this trip since they have had the chance to meet first hand one of the wonders of the world and one of the most beautiful places in Andalucia.

After the visit, our students have participated in a Gymkhana through the center of Granada in which they have had to find some monuments and elements of recycling, apart from interviewing English speaking people regarding their recycling habits.

 Thursday 11th May, Plogging, computers and games. 

Today we have gone to the river to do some plogging. This activity started as a bilingual integrated didactic unit but has been so successful that we have also used for the Erasmus+ project. Ours tudents have been divided into different teams to collect different kinds of waste (plastic, glass, metal, etc...). They have used the bags they created in the first workshoop to collect bottle caps. After collecting all the waste, we have gone to the recycling points of the school and we have sorted it all out.

After that, students have worked on creating promotional digital posters by using the pictures they have taken along the walk. 

Finally, they have played some games in a workshop called "recycling history", in which they have played some traditional roman games the way they did. 

Friday 12th May, Final workshops and closing ceremony

Today has been our last day. Students have finished the logos they created on the first workshop by using recycled paper. After that, we have had our closing ceremony, in which we have awarded students with their certificates of participation. We have also gifted them some pieces of soap with cake shapes they made on the first workshop. Additionally, we have given a prize to the winners of the gymkhana in Granada. 

To finish, we have had a talent show called "Tú si que Valles" in which some Spanish and Erasmus+  students have delighted us with songs and performances and we have enjoyed singing with them.
