How students from all over Europe work together in Mannheim-Neckarstadt to protect the environment
Karim Hammouda had the idea to register the school for it. In the first few years, teachers traveled to Finland and Austria, among other places, to learn about digitalization and new teaching techniques. This was one of the reasons why the LFG was well prepared for homeschooling during the Corona lockdowns. However, it was precisely these lockdowns that threw a spanner in the works of the current student program. The program was supposed to have been running since the beginning of 2020. For the first time, the meetings had to take place digitally. "But you have to experience intercultural learning and democracy," says Hammouda, who is glad that everything can take place as planned.
They come from the Rhineland, France and Spain: European guest students learn with young people from the Ludwig-Frank-Gymnasium in the Neckarstadt district of Mannheim how environmental protection works locally.
Crown caps, bottles, plastic bags: rubbish from the banks of the Neckar is meticulously sorted into categories, pupils and teachers work together.
It is a seemingly normal Tuesday morning at the Ludwig Frank Gymnasium (LFG). The bell rings and noisy pupils trudge more or less cheerfully into their classrooms. But in one of them, everything is different this week. Because it is the week of the Erasmus+ mobility program. This means that pupils from Bonn, France, and Spain visit the school to learn new things and gain experience in another country with their peers in Mannheim.
This Erasmus+ logo was created by pupils. It combines the program name "yEUr water - Row on it! Care for it!" , the European flag and waves as a reference to water.
"Plastic Pirates" on the banks of the Neckar
Experiencing democracy
Erasmus+ is a programme of the European Union (EU) that not only organises and finances this kind of student exchange, but that teachers can also use to train themselves. That's how it started at the LFG five years ago.
This week's student project is led by Franziska Fritz. The teacher of English, French, geology and psychology welcomes the pupils today with a video. This was produced by the EU under the slogan "Plastic Pirates - Go Europe!".
Just like the learning materials and some tools that the pupils will still use. For this cooperation, the schools have agreed on the topic of water and the sustainable use of it. "We chose the topic ourselves, the fact that there was already something on it was a happy coincidence," says Fritz. Afterward, the young people do some contemporary research with tablets and divide up into groups. Then they go to the Neckar.
A group interviewed other students and discussed water pollution causes and possible solutions to reduce it.
The last group calls themselves "reporters" and interviews the others, collects info and thinks about possible reasons. "Most of the rubbish is cigarette butts or crown caps," 15-year-old Rosa knows, "but it was much worse in Bonn." The aim of the whole action today is to record water pollution in figures. These are then compared with other European cities and rivers. This is to give the students a perspective that doesn't just look at Germany.
Pupils worked together to discover the Neckar river.
New friendships
Reporters for environmental protection
Learning is one thing - but cultural exchange is another. But both are very well received by the pupils themselves. "It's great to meet new people in new places and see how they live," says Olivia from Spain. "Doing something for the environment and learning feels good," assures Lola.
Teacher Fritz also has a positive impression. "Many make new friends," she says in a preliminary talk.
Once there, the groups spread out at various locations near the Collini footbridge. Two groups measure areas on the bank and on the meadow. Then, equipped with bags and gloves, they collect everything on the beach and meadow that does not belong there. Once that is done, the rubbish goes to another group that sorts and counts it.
Having friends from all over the globe gives you a deeper understanding of the world we live in. Eramus friends can become a new family you did not even know you needed!
Two pupils methodically classified and counted the rubbish.
