Quality Label for eTwinning projects of Scholastic Year 2014/15

We are pleased to announce that the Year 3 children of Ms Melanie’s and Ms Catherine’s classes, as well as the Year 4 children of Ms Claudine’s class have been awarded the Quality Label for their eTwinning project of scholastic year 2014-15. eTwinning Quality Labels are granted to teachers with excellent eTwinning projects. They indicate that the project has reached a certain national and European standard.

You must be asking – What’s eTwinning?

eTwinning is a framework for schools to collaborate on the Internet with partner schools in other European countries. The projects aim to encourage European schools to collaborate using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT).

At the click of a mouse, pupils and teachers can work with their counterparts in other countries and learn about any subject or topic with and from each other.

The main aim behind these kind of projects is to create very rich and authentic learning situations for the children. They contribute in an increase to the students’ motivation, improves their communication and team-work skills and help them to develop cultural awareness and tolerance. We believe that there are more opportunities for the children to learn than just within the classroom.
