⁣🌳Our first eco-bric project is nearly complete! Over months and months, the students have collected plastic waste from the village and converted it into bricks.🌳⠀
Each brick is made from a plastic bottle stuffed full with plastic waste. With no local waste collection service, these bricks are a creative way to prevent contamination.⠀
⠀
🌿🌿 In this bench alone, we have saved approximately 40kg of plastic from polluting the local area!! 🌿🌿⠀
⠀
People around the world have been building all kinds of amazing things with these bricks. Keep your eyes peeled for our next construction... 👀👀😏⠀
If you would like advice about how to start your own eco-bric project please get in touch! ⠀

Last week we listened to the story of ‘Swimmy’ - a small black fish in the ocean. He really likes to play with his friends, a group of small red fishes. But one day a big fish came and ate all of the them - except Swimmy.⠀
⠀
After this he left his home and swam through the big sea. On his way he discovered a lot of beautiful animals which he never had seen before. And finally he met a group of small red fishes again. They became friends and Swimmy suggested to swim to other places in the sea to get to know all the incredible creatures.⠀
⠀
But the other fishes were too afraid of the big fishes out there. Swimmy was really sad about this and wanted to find a solution. ⠀
⠀
Finally he had the idea of building a big fish out of lots of small ones. Now they could swim through the whole ocean without fear of the big fishes.⠀
⠀
⠀
What can we learn from this story? ⠀
Together we are strong(er). We can achieve everything, solve problems, find solutions and not being afraid. It’s so important that we can rely on family, friends, the community and so on. ⠀
⠀
⠀
To underline the importance of cohesion, the students draw a their own small fishes with their names and we formed a big one at the end!

Yesterday’s work with the students. Building ‘futbolíns’. ⠀
First the boxes were measured to calculate how big the goal will be and at which distance the players are standing.⠀
After that, the goals were cut out and the players and the pitch were painted. ⠀
⠀
And ready! ⠀
