Today we’re sharing some of the materials used in our creative workshops!
Students followed the instructions for the creative writing activity, where they imagined dialogues giving voice to living beings affected by environmental problems. ✍️🌱

We’re also sharing the flyer for the project logo, which will inspire each national team to start designing their own version. 🎨✨

This afternoon, the students worked in their national teams to complete their creative dialogues, giving a voice to the living beings they had previously chosen. 🌱

Each dialogue focuses on the environmental problems identified earlier in the week and will serve as the foundation for the first act of the theatre play, to be presented later in Portugal and recorded on video. 🎬

Before ending the session, the groups also received instructions to start designing the project logo in their home countries. ✏️🌿

During our visit to Feldberg’s House of Nature, students deepened their understanding of the fragile balance of forest ecosystems.
They learned how the bark beetle is seriously damaging the native trees of the Black Forest, weakening vast areas of woodland and threatening biodiversity.

At the same time, nature offers its own solutions — birds such as cuckoos and woodpeckers play a vital role in controlling harmful insects and helping the forest recover.

It was a powerful reminder of how every living being has a role in maintaining the balance of nature and how protecting biodiversity means protecting life itself.

A Journey into Nature — Feldberg Experience

During the visit to the House of Nature in Feldberg, the participants joined a guided walk through the nature reserve located in the heart of the Black Forest. Surrounded by breathtaking scenery, they learned about the local biodiversity and discovered some of the region’s most fascinating stories — including the legend of the Denglegeist, the ghost of Feldberg.
According to local folklore, the Denglegeist is said to wander through the misty forests, appearing on foggy days to protect the mountain and warn those who disrespect nature. This tale added a touch of mystery and imagination to a day filled with discovery and connection to the natural world.

In the afternoon, the group enjoyed a cultural trip to Basel, discovering the charm of this city where Switzerland, Germany, and France meet. The visit included some of Basel’s most iconic landmarks: the magnificent Basel Cathedral, with its stunning architecture and panoramic views; the crossing of the Rhine River, an unforgettable experience connecting both sides of the city; the City Tower, offering a remarkable perspective over Basel’s historic center; and the famous Tinguely Fountain, where students admired the playful moving sculptures created by the Swiss artist Jean Tinguely.

It was a perfect cultural moment to end the day — combining learning, exploration, and friendship, and showing once again that Erasmus+ is also about discovering Europe’s cultural and artistic diversity.

After the presentations, students continued their morning with dynamic group discussions about environmental problems.

First, they worked in national groups, identifying and debating the environmental issue that most affects their own country. Then, they moved into international mixed groups with students from Germany, Portugal, Romania, and Turkey, where they shared perspectives, compared realities, and selected a common topic to explore together.

Each group then created a mind map highlighting the key questions, causes, related to the chosen environmental theme.

It was a morning full, dialogue, and critical thinking, showing how collaboration across countries can lead to deeper understanding and shared responsibility for protecting our planet.

This collaborative work will serve as the foundation for the first act of a theatre play that will later be presented in Portugal — a creative way to give nature a voice through drama and international teamwork.

After the warm welcome at Meret-Oppenheim School Center, students spent an exciting and inspiring day of learning and collaboration. They attended some classes alongside their host students, experiencing the daily life of the school and its learning atmosphere.

During the Art class, they took part in a creative activity where everyone followed the same set of instructions given by the teacher, yet the final results were all different — a perfect demonstration of individuality, interpretation, and creativity. Students also enjoyed a memory game to strengthen bonds among participants and worked together to build an insect hotel, promoting environmental awareness and teamwork.

It was a vibrant day of sharing, discovery, and creativity, where students learned that collaboration and diversity make every experience richer and more meaningful.
