“Our seas” is a Comenius 1 project under Socrates, launched in September 2006.

After the first visit held in Gozo in November 2006, Almere, Holland was the next meeting place in the last week of May. All participating schools showed the work and research done during the scholastic year.

During this meeting initial planning for next year was discussed. Also, the teachers from Gozo and Italy had the opportunity to visit and deliver lessons to students in Flevoland, Holland. This was a unique experience for the participants.

Our Seas deals with the dynamic relationship between human beings and the sea. The project places this relationship in a historical perspective and studies its cultural and economic dimensions, as well as its role in communication among peoples. It explores alternative uses of the sea that are ecologically sustainable. Most of all, students will become conscious of being part of a wider European community.

Apart from Ninu Cremona Lyceum Complex, three other schools are participating in the project, Instituto Compresivo Statale “Ignazio Buttitta”, Sicily – Italy (Coordinating school), Protestants chistelijke basisschool de Olijfboom, Flevoland – Holland and Scuola Media Statale “Luigi Luciani”, Marche – Italy. Next meeting is projected for October in Ascoli Piceno (Italy).
