European week for waste reduction

From 16^th November until 24^th was the European week for waste reduction in which our school took part. We participated in an International project called “Don Quixoteans”. Our aim was to make a model of Don Quixote using wasted materials such as newspapers, magazines, brochures and many other useless things. We separated into three groups each of which was responsible for different part of the project. One of the groups that consisted only of boys had to make the sword and the other group – the body of the fiction character. The third group consisted of me and two girls from eight grade and we were responsible for the background of this piece of art. It wasn’t an easy task because we had to cut lots of colourful pictures from magazines and brochures and after that to do the most awful part – stick them together. Fortunately the 8^th graders were very enthusiasted so I didn’t have to this and I only had the task to cut and organize the photos. I think we had a lot of fun together making this project and at the end we had something really satisfying.
