Unforgettable mobility in Sicily

17th April was the third day of the journey. We set off at 8am from San Cipirello to Monreale. On this day, we were at the school in Monreale, where we had to work in groups. Within a group there were 6 students, 2 Spanish, 2 Italian, 2 Hungarian pupils. The topics of the day were science and art in the present and future. In the morning, we were working in groups of science and technology concerning the following topics: alternative energies in the household industry and innovative technologies to produce energy (STEM system – Solar Thermo Electric Magaldi). During the workshop, we had to write science- and energy-related questions that would be asked in the power plant at San Filippo del Mela. Then, from 12.30 till 14.00 the students and teachers visited the town exploring food and local customs. After that, we went back to the school and continued our work with the previous group. Our next topic was art and local identity and art and urban regeneration (The case of Favara). After finishing work, we had a coffee break with coffee, biscuits, soft drinks and ice cream. Finally, we travelled home from Monreale to San Cipirello.

In spite of the fact that it wasn’t the most exciting day, it was a big experience for us and we learnt a lot of new information about certain places in Sicily. In addition, this day was a good chance to know each other deeply.
