One of our school leavers is really interested in zero waste. She had organised many workshops to draw their schoolmates' attention on how to lead a zero waste life.
Here is an article on her thoughts:
Saving Earth is the most important social awareness which everyone must know about to bring some positive changes on our planet. We want our students to become our future BEES, the sentinels of our planet. Climate is getting worse and worse. The contribution of mankind plays a great role in turning this nature event into a disaster. We are 6 schools around Europe which are very well aware of the negative effects of environmental problems and came together to create a partnership on the topic.

Pupils from Zespół Szkolno-Przedszkolny nr 3 im. Jana Pawła II in Rybnik (Poland) decided that it was necessary
to make the school's surroundings more environmentally friendly. To achieve
this, the older children cleaned up the nearby forest, while the younger
children made seed balls, which grew into beautiful, colourful flowers, which
are visible from school windows.
Students who participated in the Turkish mobility visited an exhibition about environment in Trabzon. The Professor of KTU gave information about how to save the nature. Students watched some short documentaries about global warming and filled in a questionnaire and got some presents too.
We have been teaching our students how to support animals in different ways: we visited dog shelters, donated food for animals in need, etc. In the Hungarian mobility, we adopted a giraffe in a zoo. While visiting the spot, we were taught why we need to support animals. We showed an alternative to our students how else they can help endangered animals so we adopted a giraffe for a year. We also received a certificate and our project's name was displayed among the donators. It was a huge experience to feed our beautiful wild animal. He was named HIPPTS (from our countries' names: Hungary-Italy-Poland-Portugal-Turkey-Spain) After the mobility we were invited to a parent meeting where we could get a general information on what has happened to HIPPTS. Some students attended this event.
Our Italian partner school organised a local event during our mobility. The aim was to make cycling more popular and draw attentin on green means on transport. One of the stops was at the local municipality where the town officials welcomed our group and loved this idea.
All participants have chosen an endangered animal facing extinction. We tried to draw attention on their importance with a project work.
