October - Our Eco Activities

🌱 1. Collaborative Eco-Code

As part of European Code Week, we took part in the exciting challenge "Coding in Hexadecimal with Eco Heroes". Together with our partners, we encoded and decoded letters, learning how coding can be fun and creative while promoting eco-awareness.  

Take a look at our collaborative book 📖




💡 2. Second Eco-Challenge: “Save Energy – Save the Planet”

We watched inspiring videos and discussed practical ways to save energy in our daily lives. Then, we created our own short video full of tips and ideas to help protect our planet while making energy-saving simple and fun!

🌳 3. World Tree Day (October 10th)

On World Tree Day, we learned about Cyprus' national tree, the Golden oak (Latzia). Inspired, we created our very own Tree of Promises on the school board, writing down pledges to protect and care for trees. Together with our partners, we built a collaborative tree full of hopes and commitments for a greener future.




💻🌍🎶 4. Student Meeting & Erasmus Days

We joined our eTwinning partners from the project “Eco Heroes: Little Actions, Big Impact” in an inspiring online meeting. Students connected across Europe and sang “We Are the World” — a beautiful symbol of unity, hope, and European values such as respect, freedom, democracy, equality, justice, and human rights. This special activity was part of our Erasmus Days celebrations, highlighting collaboration and global awareness.

⭐ 💖 🎶 🌈 💫 🎨 ✨ 🎵 💕 🌟 🎈 🎤 This month, our class explored creativity and technology in a fun way — by designing our very own digital avatars ! Each student imagined their character and used Copilot to bring it to life with colors, style, and personality. But the magic didn’t stop there! Using ChatterPix , students gave their avatars a voice — literally! They recorded short introductions in English so that each avatar could speak for itself. Through this playful project, students practiced English speaking skills, digital literacy, and self-expression. They were excited to see how their voices and creations came together in one joyful video. Below you can watch our final video — a cheerful presentation of our talking avatars.
