Erasmus + KA122 project:"it is time to act: Urban rivers need help"
Our Greek partners finally visited us.
Three teachers from a music school in Larissa, Greece, attended some of our lessons as part of the Erasmus + project being carried out by both schools.
This program has the river as the centre key, not only from an ecological point of view, but from an artistic and musical one as well.
This is the reason why a visit to the music school in the city centre was also carried out.
We are waiting for them to come with their students this October as part of an exchange between schools.
