"Infiorata" in Italy

Our students did a research about the origins of the festivities and traditions related to the "Infiorata" in Italy and realized a colorful PPT...transformed in a musical video.

MEMORIES

A SCHOOL YEAR LOADED WITH A LOT OF WISHES AND SOME OBSTACLES

We started in September with great enthusiasm and eagerness to share, to put into practice our planning with the schools that take part in our association and to learn from each other through local and European festivities as a starting point of our work.

It is our creature and we must feed and care for it to grow healthy and strong.

We have reached what would be the “Equator” of our project. We say it would be, because the circumstances caused by COVID-19 that have affected all over the world have forced us to modify our planning and temporarily put aside school exchange, the visits to different schools where we can learn from each other through observation and participation in their day to day both in schools and living with families during our stays.
Despite this, we have tried to go on our work from the distance, from our homes, thanks to the incredible collaboration of our students, their families and  all the educational community, without which this would not have been possible.

Taking a look back we can summarize through images our great job that hides hours and hours of preparation and sharing among all the participants, achieving rapprochement among our schools. As a complement, bonds of friendship have been created with the families whose connection is our project and which we hope will last over time.

 And so, without having lost energy and enthusiasm, this summary of an atypical course serves as a tribute to our great family made up of six schools from places as different as Spain, Greece, Italy, Poland, Romania and Turkey and which thanks to our association we will be united in time and distance indefinitely.

The students of Class 3B, inspired by the "Spirit of Europe", realized a special Flower Carpet to say THANK YOU to all the countries taking part in our project!

Sharing traditions between European countries and the world.

Tasks

1. Research origins and development of the Festival.

2. Preparation of flower carpets. Participation in the educational community in design and development of the flower carpets.
