In this project students will use the school green garden as a laboratory to foster creativity, movement, knowledge, problem-solving and deductive-inductive scientific method. The pupils will learn valuable gardening and agriculture concepts (ogm free, biodynamic culture, organic food,…) and skills that integrate with several subjects (art, maths, technology, science, citizenships, etc.).
There will be 6 modules, from October to May, with interactive activities and webinars carried out by the pupils in national and international teams.
