New Plans for the year!

Although we have submitted our project report that doesn't mean that we're done with this campaign! As a matter of fact we have already started to make new plans for the campaign since we have a lot of new students in our school!

Our plans include the creation of a simple application for the computer which we will give to students in small CDs and those applications will contain games, crosswords, puzzles, etc, all concerning the environment! We know that if not all then at least 95% of the students of our school own a laptop or a desktop so we think that they may find this idea entertaining and educating!

We will also talk to the new students while they are having lessons, like we did last year for all students. What's more is that we are going to add some students to our club from other classes so that we can more easily access every one in the school!

Don't forget to visit some of our favourite sites related to our campaign or to the environment by using the links in the sidebar (which are below the title Sites you have to visit!).

By the way, we saw some really good reports there! A lot of students from all over the world have worked really hard for this campaign! It's very nice to see that although we live thousands of kilometres away from these students our aims are the same! Only difference is the approach!

Good luck to everyone!

Back to school!

We got back to school and we're preparing for new and even better activities for the campaign!

What we are going to do for the following month is to write a report of what we did and upload it to the site so a lot more people will know about our activities! We hope we'll become good examples!

What the team has to say about the campaign

When our teacher, Mrs Maria Loizou, informed us about this competition, we responded positively immediately. The subject of environmental problems and especially the climate change caused by several means of transportation seems to be an issue that stimulates our interest, since it is something that relates to us on a high extend.

Having a first glance at the subject intrigued us extremely. Through working for this campaign we acquired an affluence of knowledge regarding the problems that our planet is suffering from. Therefore we made our attempt to find a list of actions in order to reverse the current conditions, distinguishing firstly what is beneficial and what is harmful for our planet. We adopted various strategies aiming at generating fruitful circumstances.

We feel very happy that we took part in such a program, due to the fact that it gave us the opportunity to raise awareness concerning climate change, among our environment (classmates, teachers, citizens, relatives).

We hope that such opportunities will be offered to us again and again in the future!

HOME: gives us HOPE!

The film HOME was proved to be a success!
A truly amazing film. You can watch it here:

Getting close to an end...

The school year is almost over so it is time to check what we have achieved. We gave the students, the teachers and our relatives the same questionnaire we gave them two months ago with just a few changes.

The results we obtained were magnificent! The awareness of everyone about the environmental problems has increased and less people now use cars! We hope it's not just because of the better weather!:D

We hope that everyone has a great summer!

HOME

We found out about this amazing film and we decided to make our own posters about it and give them to all drivers that are passing by our school!

Here is our poster (and next to it is the translation in English):
