Our program's song/ ΤΟ ΤΡΑΓΟΥΔΙ ΤΟΥ ΠΡΟΓΡΑΜΜΑΤΟΣ

Οι μαθητές των Δ΄, Ε΄, ΣΤ΄τάξεων χωρίστηκαν σε ομάδες. Η κάθε ομάδα έγραψε τους στίχους ενός τραγουδιού στα ελληνικά που αναφερόταν στο θέμα του προγράμματος. Στη συνέχεια οι ομάδες παρουσίασαν το τραγούδι τους στις άλλες ομάδες. Όλες μαζί δημιούργησαν ένα κοινό τραγούδι που το μετάφρασαν στα αγγλικά με τη βοήθεια της δασκάλας αγγλικών κ. Τσιμπώνη Ελένης. Η μουσικός μας κ. Βίβιαν Γώγου το μελοποίησε. Όλοι μαζί το τραγουδήσαμε.

Students from 4th, 5th, 6th grade were divided into groups. Each group wrote the song's verses in Greek. This song refered in our program's theme. Each group presented their song to the other teams. They all created a common song that was translated in English with the help of the English teacher mrs Tsimponi Eleni. Our music teacher mrs Gogou Vivian composed the song. We sang it all together.

Water in our hands

 In a little nest, I would like to live

With love and tenderness on our precious land

Just a little water , that I need to live

I will always love it, it’s a God-sent gift

A helping hand and a friendship starts

We look so happy with water in our hands

Water everywhere, like a ray of light

It loves all people, makes everything all right

Do not kill water, it’s a precious gift

Give it to the children, make them (all) happy

A helping hand and a friendship starts

We can work together, we can reach the stars

Carly: A refugee's story / Ειρήνη: Η ιστορία ενός παιδιού πρόσφυγα

Η Ειρήνη αναγκάζεται να αφήσει το σπίτι της και τα πάντα πίσω της. Μόνη, ξεκινά να βρει βοήθεια σε άλλους τόπους. Μπαίνει στη χώρα των Πετροφάγων, των Μουτζουρωμένων κορακιών και των Μεταξωτών ουρών. Αλλά κανείς τους δε θα τη βοηθήσει, γιατί είναι ‘’παράξενη’’ και διαφορετική από αυτούς. Πού θα βρει η Ειρήνη την ασφάλειαAκαι τη ζεστασιά μιας νέας οικογένειας ;


 Carly is forced to flee her home and leave everything behind. All alone, she sets out to find help in other lands. She encounters the Stone-eaters, Smoky-Crows and Silky-tails. Βut none of them will help her because she is ‘’strange’’ and different from them. Where will Carly find the safety and warmth of a new family?

 

Local paper in Larissa, Greece wrote about the visit of the European students and teachers in the school.

Greek students visit art studio

Οι μαθητές από την Ελλάδα επισκέφτηκαν το καλλιτεχνικό εργαστήρι «Δημιουργική Πόρτα» στη Λάρισα και παρακολούθησαν το εκπαιδευτικό πρόγραμμα «Ο Απόλλωνας και η Δάφνη». Πρώτα βυθιστήκανε στη χώρα του παραμυθιού και στη συνέχεια το κάθε παιδί κατασκεύασε τη δική του μακέτα.

The students from Greece visited the art studio «Creativity Door» in Larisa and watched the educational programme «Apollo and Daphne». First, they «dived» into the fairytale land and then every student make his/her own model. You can see the activity here.
