Team-building trip

We've visited recently one of Romania's most popular touristic attractions, the Salt Mine from Turda, which is very close to our city, Cluj-Napoca. This trip gave us an opportunity not only to admire the beauties of nature but also to have fun and to learn together, like a real team :)

 We couldn't miss the chance to promote our project in the underground.:))) So, we checked the echo of the mine, which gives back the sound thirteen times!!!

On Saturday our school took part on a special competition, specially organized for schools with EU funded projects. Adriana represented our school and she had such a great presenation that she won the first prize!!!
So, CONGRATULATIONS ADRIANA, and we wish you good luck for the next stage!

Volunteering starts with small steps...

The second edition of our winter toy sale was a real succes. We made really good bargains and renewed our toy collection, knowing that by buying we can help. The money we raised was enough for lots of sweets and presents for many of our younger colleages...but we'll let the pictures tell you more...

Giving feels better than receiving

As you could see we were very busy and last week and eager to take our present to our new friends. Seeing their smiling faces we realized once again that it's much better giving than receiving!!!

International Volunteering Day

Did you know that 5 December is the International Volunteering Day? On this occasion we turned into Santa's elves for a day :) We prepared special cards and brought our toys to school and tomorrow we will try to bring joy into the lives of some children that haven't been visited by Santa yet...

EU and Children's Rights

Here we have a short movie of our latest activities, related to the EU and Children's rights. 

We enjoyed them a lot and we are looking forward to hearing about the activities you

 have done in your schools.

 

Let's do it!

This autumn, for the third time, we joined the national clean up action. We are happy that our town became  cleaner with our help. What about you? Have you got this kind of actions in your town?

Flowers from our garden

Pansies (viola tricolor)

One of the typical flowers from our garden is the pansy, its Latin name being Viola witrokiana. This plant has green leaves and it can be of different colour, like: white, blue, purple and yellow. It grows especially in sunny landscapes, in sandy soil. Well, if you want to grow a pansy, you should:

- put it somewhere with much sunlight

- water it every day, when it’s hot even 2 or 3 times

- change it’s soil once a year

- take out the weeds from all around the plant

The importance of pansies:

- they are used in medicine for different treatments, like: epilepsy, asthma…

- they are also used like a decorative flower

Zinnia (Zinnia elegans)

These plants begin producing flowers in early summer and continue all the way until the first frost. Large, colorful blossoms appear in shades of white, yellow, orange, pink and red, depending on the variety. In most cases, zinnias are grown from seed. It is a plant that grows in the loamy soil, which is rich in nutritive substances. It likes sunny and warm places. It is planted directly in the garden in May. 

It must be watered regularly, but not very often. It doesn’t tolerate frost.

It is an annual flower, used for ornamental purposes only. 

Rock flower (Portulaca grandiflora)

      

The rock flower grows from seeds in March; the seeds can be put directly in the garden or in the patchwork.

 It is an annual plant. It prefers sandy soils, dry without large quantities of fertilizer. It prefers rare watering, with small quantities of water; it needs a bright sunny space, and high temperature. 

During hot days put small quantities of water to the flower root, once every 3-5 days.

It is an ornamental flower
