    The Official Hymn of our Project



    Hello Comenius People,





    as you all know we have chosen the song "Bailaches Carolina" with an unanimous votation as our Official Hymn after Loli's proposal.





    It is well known that it was not an easy decision, we discussed for hours...







    we had dozens of options...












    we tried hundreds of other songs...





    we sang and we danced all night long... just to try...






    but our best singer convinced us that this song was the best for us.





    This is the story of our hymn... please, have a look at it:

    You can find it here, too: Bailaches Carolina


    and after that, please have a look on this video, too. It is about human right to have education, you won't waste your time... and on this one.

    Romanian Week in Italy


    The Romanian Week in Pescara started the 1st of May for Students' Creativity Day, where our project Building Europe From Roots and the three meetings in Spain, Greece and Romania were presented. Next year we will join another Institute...

    Then we organized some activities in our school:

    First of all, the 28th of May, our students prepared some stands during the “Aterno Institute Festival": international food was everywhere:












    We tried to represent all the countries involved in our project.

    Starting from our region Abruzzo…





    then a stand of Spain...



    One of Greece and the Olympics games...




    and other countries, too.





    Girls who went to Romania explained what they did there and everything about the Comenius Project.





    This festival was opened to students' parents and to whoever wanted to come. Students played music, sang and danced










    It was very crowded because unfortunately we were not allowed to give lesson...




    The 31st of May, we watched a film: Dracula, in English, after having introduced Romania and Transilvania, of course...

    The day after we showed some
    powerpoint files about Romanian culture following Romanian team's suggestions: first a presentation of Romania (geography, history, culture, tradition, music, food, of course...),





    an
    d then a presentation of Romanian important people like A. Gheorgiu, E. Ionescu, M. Cartarescu, N. Comaneci, C. Brancusi, M. Eliade, G. Enescu...



    at the end, the three girls who went to Romania read their reports and offered some Romanian food.



    I think that many people in our school know better this wonderful land now, and our project, too...



    And that's all, Comenius people!
