We are saying goodbye to the Erasmus TV International project (2019-2022) after an intense Erasmus week, from May 23 to 27, 2022, at our high school in Vallbona d’Anoia. Our meeting focused on green issues, sustainability and cultural heritage.
We have shared knowledge and experiences about sustainability and the human impact on the environment with activities such as the speed debate, the photo exhibition at the Vallbona City Council on green issues (to whom we’d like to thank for welcoming us into their facilities whenever needed), a denouncing video, the guided visit to Sitges by CEM (Centre d’Estudis del Mar), the visit to the “Abric Romaní” (NEAN) in Capellades and other activities in Vallbona d’Anoia, Igualada, La Pobla de Claramunt, Montserrat and Barcelona.
Please read our magazine below for more details.
We celebrated our cultural diversity and tried to show the good and the best of our region and surrounding areas through the short film “A Return to Anoia’s Past” where the European students accompanied those from Vallbona in the discovery of our cultural, historical and natural, starting at the Casa de la Festa d’Igualada and passing through Can Granotes, Vallbona d’Anoia, Colonia Güell and its crypt, Sitges and Montserrat. It was great fun! Don’t miss the film on our Erasmus TV International YouTube channel.
To learn more about the short film, please read these articles on our Erasmus TV International TwinSpace on eTwinning about the film and the making of the film.
There have been three intense school years, marked by the pandemic and the difficulty of being able to have face-to-face meetings, but very enriching and beautiful for all the participating students and teachers. We improved our English communication skills by making new friends in Europe, we also got to know other cultures and languages and learned to work in wider and more inclusive European teams. We have also improved our digital and audiovisual competence through the production of videos and photographs along the project.
Above all, we have discovered how many things unite us with our European partners and the great value of having the opportunity to travel, meet and share to open horizons. We are grateful to the Erasmus+ programme and the Erasmus+ national agency, SEPIE, for their co-financing and the magnificent opportunity for learning and personal enrichment that they have given us during these three years.
As the project coordinator, I am very grateful to all my partners and friends for their hard work, friendship and authenticity. I keep in my heart all the experiences shared and everything learned from them not only as a coordinating teacher, but also as an individual. Cheers and Erasmus!
Carmen Flores, project coordinator, Spain
