Good Morning, Europe!

This is a section of the Childhood Chronicles Project and it has run as local project in our school during the 1999/2000 school year. It will be internationally open next school year.

As teachers we must give the greatest importance to the "heart" of our pupils. They are able to learn about the true values of life not only in school or family areas, but also in networking projects nowadays.

The values of life are defined as the social principle, goals or standards held or accepted by an individual, class or society.

Participants are invited to submit a short literary composition of an analytical, interpretive or reflective kind, expressing the outlook and personality of the children about the ideals and principles of their life in Europe. They can also share diverse life experiences of how they should live or about the most valuable things in their life as European citizens.

The goal of the project is to encourage pupils to learn from the experiences of the others and to avoid the errors of the past, developing a sense of individual identity related to the fundamental truths and rules of European life.
