 A Unique Experience at Blue Horizons: The Young "Protectors" of the 8th Elementary School of Kallithea

Today, Friday, February 27, 2026, the 5th-grade students of the 8th Elementary School of Kallithea visited the historic Yacht Club of Greece in Piraeus to participate in the Blue Horizons educational event.

Under the theme "If I had Poseidon’s Trident...", our students used their imagination to explore how they could protect the marine environment. Through a perfectly balanced "edutainment" program, the children had the chance to:

• Learn about climate change and ocean pollution through interactive presentations tailored to their daily lives.

• Participate in a S.T.E.A.M. workshop titled "How Trash Becomes a Robot," where they combined environmental awareness with basic principles of electricity.

• Engage in hands-on activities, such as learning nautical knots, making environmental pledges, and meeting the iconic HELMEPA Seagull.

The highlight of the day was "The Children's Message," where our students took the stage to express their dreams and promises for healthy oceans through songs and spontaneous messages.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the organizers for inviting us to this wonderful event. It was a truly inspiring day that empowered our students to become the next generation of ocean guardians.

8th Primary school of Kallithea/Georgia Karabali/Acrostic Poem

 

As part of our eTwinning project Many Friends Green Steps for a Happier Planet, our students took part in a collaborative acrostic poem activity.

Using the first three letters of the project title, they created meaningful verses related to environmental protection, friendship, cooperation, and sustainability. Through creativity and teamwork, they expressed their ideas about how small green steps can lead to big changes for our planet.

This activity encourages collaboration between partner schools, as each school contributes different parts of the poem. Our students proudly started the acrostic, and we are excited to see how our partners will continue and complete it.

Together, we are building not only a poem, but also a shared vision for a happier and greener planet.

 Today, our eTwinning project students joined an exciting online meeting! The session kicked off with a representative from each school presenting their classroom, helping us build a sense of community. We then watched a video and a presentation dedicated to Safer Internet Day, focusing on how to stay protected and responsible online.

The highlight of the meeting was the collaboration in breakout rooms. Working in small groups of 2-3 schools, students brainstormed and agreed on 3 essential rules for internet safety. These rules will be shared on our project forum and used to design a collaborative informative leaflet. It was a fantastic opportunity for our students to exchange ideas and work together towards a common goal!
