From the 8th – 16th March 2024 25 students (2nd and 4th grades) of the BG/BRG Judenburg participated in the Erasmus+ students’ exchange at the Spanish “Colegio Abad Sola” in Gandia/Spain. The students were accompanied by the teachers Mag. Bernd Fiechtl, Mag. Susanne Stadler and Mag. Ilse Prenn. This was the second part of this project where Austrian students were warmly welcomed by Spanish host families and the Spanish Erasmus+ Coordinators Jaime Sainz Castillo (Headmaster of Colegio Abad Sola), Inés Lado Monserrat and Joan Maravilla Tarrazona. The Austrian students stayed the whole week with their exchange students and carried out a wide range of ecological, social and cultural activities.
The main aim of this project was based on the topics “sustainability”, “plastic waste and reduction” and “social and cultural learning”.
Special focus was put on to promote environmental knowledge and awareness among teachers and students regarding plastic waste. The main priority of this project was to protect the environment, especially by reducing plastic and plastic waste. Since 2022, the partners have developed measures to develop an environmentally friendly school and have exchanged and collected experiences and effective methods to reduce plastic waste.
