Europe´s Day, May 09 2008

Today we undertook our first video conference with new energy partner schools. Our Romanian partners from Buzau, Madalina and Robert as initiators, and we as the German school from Wolgast were "United in Diversity" for nearly two school hours on Europe´s Day, May 09 2008. For some minutes we had a Portuguese school in the conference.
The technical quality was not perfect, the acoustic made some problems, but all in all it was a great experience and a success to hear and to see each other life per internet with skype. Our pupils had some small talk about different aspects of personal and school life and Europe was also a theme.
In Germany we were two groups, in Romania there were four pupils and some teachers involved in the conference.
Next step could be an exchange of e-mail addresses to intensify discussions. May be there could be also some pupils to write an article on this blog. Try it. To invite you we need your e-mail adress ... .
And last but not least we hope to see each other in autumn or spring.

And her(e) the poem written by Ulrike for the purpose of Europe´s Day 2008:

Hello, we are from Germany, we love renewable energy.
We want to have a clean world now, our parents said wow,wow,wow.

Plants are not only energy pure, but they can help us - we are sure,
to get a cleaner, better earth, the money we´ll safe can stay in our purse.

With this money we can buy other things - one minute, stop the telefone rings.
It´s a call from farmer Hannibals, he had some greets from his animals.

They said: Thank you for the clean air, they think that it is very fair.
If Germany, Romania and France, everybody has the same chance.

So let give us our hands - let us become good friends !
