The project

  • Almost 150 years ago Phileas Fogg sent a letter to Mr John, the man who fabricated the chest he took with him to his legendary trip around the world, in order to thank him for his immediate response to his request for such a nice and durable chest!

    Finn, a distant relative of Mr John’s, discovers this letter and, fascinated by the great story of Phileas Fogg who managed to travel around the world in just 80 days, wants to learn more....

    How? .... where? .... when? .... why? .... are some of the questions that arise and ask for answers ...

    In the course of his research he discovers a short of clues that will illuminate several aspects of the well-known adventure…

    The main idea of this 6 months-long project is the accomplishment of a trip around the world in the past and in the present, which focuses on STEM.

    Starting from this time and age, a short of clues will come up and lead our students in a wonderful trip around different countries and cultures while using old and new inventions and techniques.
