Classes P4 and P5 worked together with pupils from a Danish school and exchanged christmas cards and traditional sweets, within European Hours. Our pupils had the chance to communicate and exchange wishes with children from Copenhagen. They will go on working on this e-twinning project, which they find fascinating. Merry Christmas, happy holidays!The English-speaking section of the Primary Cycle of the School of European Education of Heraklion visited the Urban Vegetable Garden in Agios Ioannis-Heraklion (Crete), in the context of an educational fieldtrip, with the aim of participating in the planting process and familiarization with organic farming.
After the welcome and a short introduction to the volunteers and the expert agronomist who take care of the Vegetable Garden every day, the students, with the help of Vicky, Kostas and Despina, planted lettuce, cabbage, broccoli and leeks. Babis Symeonidis, member of the “Greenpeace Heraklion”, under the shade of the olive tree, discussed with the students the need to protect the ecosystem from the use of plastic and other human interventions. Afterwards, the students participated in a workshop to create nurseries in paper and fabric containers.
The vegetable garden was filled with happy faces. The students were enthralled with the collection of vegetables, fruits and flowers grown within this space. They got to know all trees and plants, they tasted fresh, seasonal fruit straight from the farm and played carefree having fun in a natural, urban and human-friendly environment.
We were particularly impressed by the fact that these multicultural students were informed and aware of issues concerning the environment and its protection, as well as issues of solidarity. They behaved with courtesy and respect in this first visit to the Municipal Vegetable Garden of Agios Ioannis, something which is certainly an optimistic message in the complex and multi-challenging everyday life. After all, this generation with maturity recognizes the right choices for protecting the natural environment. Congratulations to their parents and teachers!

2019-2021: "...E QUINDI USCIMMO A RIVEDER LE STELLE"The central idea of the project aims to fight the lack of scientific-mathematical skills in children between 9 and 12 years, through the approach to the study of astronomy and observation of the sky. The direct observation of celestial phenomena, the collection of data and the related analysis in order to formulate hypotheses to be verified on the field will all be elements that will bring pupils very close to the scientific method and the history of scientific discoveries.

During the school year 2021-2022, the students of the geography class S4 together with their teacher Dimitra Tsionou will work to create an interactive e-book. The subject of the e-book will be on European female scientists that men took credit for their work. Some examples of such scientists are Rosalind Elsie Franklin (DNA structure), Bell Burnell (astronomer) and many more in the past but also recent years.

Different languages do not separate people, rather people from different countries have something in common as far as communication is concerned: they can all speak the language of the heart. Then again, ancient civilizations and in particular the ancient Greek civilization can also “communicate” with our era - and vice versa - even more directly and successfully through theater, with its undisputed edifying value highlighted by the Ancient Greeks.

In 2022 the European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM) celebrates its 10-year anniversary, since it was first launched in 2012. After 10 years of hard work and constant evolution, the ECSM campaign has reached a high maturity level and has become a flagship activity, helping change our behavior online, improving the way we act when faced with a cybersecurity threat and eventually reaching the goal of reducing cyber incidents.

Pollution and strays – we can make a difference!
Our team is comprised of students aged 11 to 18 years old and three main teachers. Our main aim is to raise awareness about stray animals and pollution. The students have created art projects, recycling centres, and games to educate younger children. They have also participated in projects highlighting the issues both stray animals and our environment face. Every week, a group of students sets out to clean up rubbish on the school grounds and in the surrounding area. One of our biggest projects was a beach clean-up, during which the students collected 11 bin bags full of rubbish from Ammoudara Beach! We are committed to continuing our learning, helping others and raising awareness in the hope of a sustainable future!
