Liceo Ginnasio Statale Mario Cutelli e C. Salanitro

The celebration of the Erasmus days will coincide with the kick off of our Erasmus project named “Re-Imagining Education: new Paces in EU Spaces”. On the occasion of the event we intend to inform our local community and a larger audience through the media about our KA122-SCH project goals and planned mobilities.

The event will be opened by the execution of the “Hymn to Joy”, official Hymn of the EU, by the School Chorus and a set of three students (a pianist, a violinist and a flute player) who will perform live. After the Head welcome speech, the Project coordinator, while explaining the symbolic meaning of the logo we chose to illustrate the Project, will talk about the topics we are going to work on (inclusion, promoting equality and non-discrimination, digital transition, sustainability and well-being, pedagogical practices) and the learning outcomes we intend to get to though four different training sessions across Europe, a Job Shadowing experience in Portugal, and a group mobility of 5 school pupils in Portugal as well. We will then give voice to the students of the class 2F who were involved last year in a CLIL project on biology and art in partnership with a mobility group of pupils coming from Portugal and who will tell about their experience, the various steps of the Project, involving occasions of formal and informal learning and the benefits they got from the participation to the Project in terms of acquired motivation and involvement.

Among the students’ commentaries we will also listen to an exponent of the web radio “Radio Cutelli” who will talk about the exciting experience of conducting an interview to the Portuguese guests (Head, teachers and students) entirely in English. The Erasmus Ambassador Prof.ssa Rosa Maria Falà will also take part in the event, she will speak about the Erasmus mission and the added value of European Partnerships.

The celebration will end up with the performance of a short monologue taken from “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” by William Shakespeare to conjugate the oniric and fabulous Shakespearean atmosphere with the dream of a re-imagined new School.
