I start through a short film my students created about the pollution of the sea and of water almost one year ago and they were awarded for it with the first prize in a school short film competition in our region. It took me some time to translate it. The whole thing,THE IDEA, poetic words, research for the ancient myth of Medusa, paintings, film, montage, recitation etc were made in the school's library during two days and the simultanous working groups were working for three hours a day.
I will also present to you and invite you to our blog where me and my students create poems about sustainability. We are already created a lot of poems in Greek which I will translate and share with you through the blog. In fact we are inspired by the numerous indigenious flowers of Greece. Greece, as you may know, thanks to its multiple ecosystems on its beautiful islands, is the most ancient and the richest botanical garden of Europe and we plead to be helped so it continues to be.
