This project uses the creation of a joint illustrated calendar
as a ground for its development. We will be guided by the saying
“A picture is worth a thousand words”. The main idea of the
illustrations is to be taken at the same spot in our towns,
month after month, revealing the changes in weather, scenery and
people activity. The calendar will be put together using a
collaborative tool (google docs) by the students in the two
schools. But this is only one side of the project, let’s say the
“artistic” one. The joint calendar will point out the most
important events in the partner schools activity (celebrations,
festivals, contests, exams), in order to get to know each other
better. The school year overlaps two important years from the
social point of view (2011, European year of volunteering and
2012, European year for active ageing and solidarity between
generations), so the highlights will be the social activities
dedicated to the voluntary work from September to December 2011
and to the elders’ involvemen
