On June 5th, as part of the Erasmus + KA2- “Learning by Doing” Project, students in the 1st cycle of Francisco Ferreira Drummond Elementary School made a study visit to the coastal area of Biscoitos, on the north coast of the island.
Previously, students worked on the importance of creating a petition to minimize the use of plastic, thus trying to warn of the harmful consequences of long-term use.
The official launch of the petition was made in the Biscoitos Bathing Zone, with the presence of Helder Xavier, representing the Terceira Island Natural Park, the President and Vice-President of the Biscoitos Parish Council, two members of the National Guard Republican responsible for the Environment, the President of the Executive Board of the Organic Unit, the students of the 2nd and 4th grades, as well as the foreign teachers (UK, Poland, Romania, Italy and Finland) involved in the project.
Subsequently, Eng. Helder Xavier gave a mini-lecture to raise awareness of the endemic flora of the shoreline to encourage the young to preserve and care for the island's coastal areas. With the impact of tourism and the increase of visitors to the bathing areas, it is important to make children aware of the respect for nature and the environment.
