Green Eco School





Welcome back to the workshop of our Erasmus group... this time students from our school had fun sewing new bags from old and used materials.

An important educational element of our sewing lesson was the use of sewing machines and learning how to baste. It is also worth noting that each bag was designed and made in a completely different way.

  GETTING DOWN TO WORK After a short break the Slovenian group is back to work. A week ago, our students shared their plans with the whole group. Together, we singled out the projects that we were most interested in. We also finally unpacked the parcel we received a while ago from our Polish partner school.
