Summary of project results
The project was needed for changing our schoolyard to be more environmentally friendly. We achieved long – term goals because the activities are provided by the students of our school. We achieved all the planned activities, such as planting trees, vegetation roof, curricula, rainy pond and improving the environment on the school yard. The results have been presented to public, local and international authorities and students, for example to the representatives of Norway Funds, to the donors from Norway participating in the grants procedures, as well as to our students and public in order to advance ecological competencies of the local community. The main aim of the project Modra Tilgnerka was to increase the ecological knowledge and active participation by improving the local environment of not only our students but also of their parents, mates and local community. In accordance with our main aim, the results were presented in different ways and outcomes, such as presentations of the results for our students, for different classes, for special guests like the Norway Ambassador and donors or the representative of the Slovak Water Management company, as well as medial presentation.
