Plants travel around Europe
Convinced of
the importance of natural and ecotourism, the CD “Plants travel around Europe” has been conceived as a particular landscape of
our project, with its genuine flavors.
It contains a description of the local vegetation and traditional plants,
some of them used in the kitchens of our countries. Photographs illustrate the descriptions and
bibliography enables a further investigation.
The Garden in Portugal
Although
uncompleted, coordinators from the seven partner schools decided to maintain
the Garden in Portugal
as one of the most emotive outcomes of our project. Seeds of plants from the local flora in each
country were sent to the school in Portugal. Students of Tourism and Gardening from
Ferreira do Zêzêre collected and let them germinate. They created a greenhouse, which
unfortunately was damaged by a destructive tornado at the beginning of
2011. A big part of the garden got
lost.

Comenius project "Let's Travel": a little bit of our work and history
The work plan and the
tasks have just slightly changed in the Comenius project “Let’s Travel!”. There were ten schools on application stage and
the project was finally granted in six European schools and in Turkey. In the first project meeting in Flensburg, Germany,
coordinators decided just to overtake one of the tasks of the schools which the
project was not admitted at: the Polish school partner developed the evaluation
activities through its questionnaires and a PowerPoint Presentation. The school in Paris did not just one, but four radio Clype
programs. The school in Umbria, Italy,
created not just the calendar “Let’s Travel 2012!”, but also the project logo,
which was not foreseen as one of its tasks on application stage. The Portuguese school in Ferreira do Zêzêre
had big problems with the Garden because of a destructive hurricane, and the
major part of the seeds sent by the other six partner school for the garden got
lost. The Turkish tasks didn’t change in
its contents, by slightly concerning to the format. On one hand the school in Iskenderun analysed and investigated on
different kinds of Tourism and all school partners developed documents and
videos. On the other hand the Turkish
team published a brochure on Tourism in all regions. The Spanish coordinating school on Minorca Island added to its tasks the one of
creating, not just the Project Blog, but also the TwinSpace project “Let’s
Travel! Mailing Europe” for cooperative work,
interaction and communication. Partner
schools did eight mobility meetings. France and Italy offered to hold two of them, so that each partner school could visit all
other countries.
