Visiting Hasbruch Jungle

Actually, we started dealing with our topic before the official project start in August 2019. So, already in April 2019 we made an excursion to one of the last German primeval forests with a grade 7 class that had treated the mixed forest in biology lessons.
We wanted to know what such an old forest looks like. With a special permission of our guide, we were even allowed to leave the paths at some point.
The forest educator showed us different beetles and a frog, woodpecker holes, mushrooms and the approx. 1250 year old Friederike oak. The old trees are very impressive, some look as if they had faces or as if they were animals and mythical creatures.
That's quite inspiring!
We would like to come back here as part of the student exchange with our French guests.

New Erasmus+ project launched
At the beginning of the new school year 2019/20, the project "Europe Naturally! Forest and Sea - Diversity and Responsibility" targeting Waldschule pupils of year 8 and pupils of the same age from the Collège Gran Man Difou in Maripasoula has started. Without generous EU funding, an exchange as far away as that would not be possible for any of us. French Guyana is a French overseas department located on the northeast coast of South America and is mainly covered by tropical rainforest. The life of the young indigenous, Creole and Afro-Guyanese youth in the tropical climate zone with daytime climate, the floors of the rainforest with its countless inhabitants and the coastal protection of the mangrove forests will be discovered by the Schwanewede pupils. For the French from South America the animals and plants of the European mixed forest and the UNESCO - Natural World Heritage of the Wadden Sea will be exotic as well. Joint ventures carried out in French and English, will promote the students’ commitment to environmental and climate protection.                      BER

First school club meeting and first evaluation: Hopes, fears, and questions
In our first school club meeting, we first got to know each other. We played some games to break the ice, completed important forms, signed a declaration, and filled in questionnaires for our partners.

Finally, we collected all our expectations and fears concerning our school exchange and created a large tree poster together.
The tree symbolizes the project:
green leaves stand for our hopes, red leaves for our fears, and yellow leaves for our remaining questions. It was good to talk it all over and we will come back to all of these aspects during our project work.

On the occasion of the first parents' evening, the parents were invited to contribute leaves of their own but they preferred discussing what we had already written.
