Project Stone and wood
About the project
The project partners: Franco-Polish Association Cotes d’Armor Warmie and Mazurie, Jean Monnet professional High School in Quintin, “Memoire en Demeure” of Sainth Thelo, Polish French Centre Cotes d’Armor-Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, Lubawa School Team, Folk Building Museum – Ethnographic Park in Olsztynek, Klesarska škola – Pučišća.
The project is primarily aimed at preserving the cultural heritage in stone and wood as natural materials on which the European cultural heritage is built. Its goal is to promote these natural materials among young people, especially in connection with the restoration of architectural and cultural heritage in general. During the course of the project, there will be an exchange of students on restoration work in partner countries: Croatia, Poland and France.
One of the main project goals is to adapt vocational education which needs to be made attractive to high school students who are faced with difficult decisions concerning their further education and are also prone to early school leaving.
It is necessary to adapt to the world of work as much as possible with special emphasis on retaining qualified young professionals in the country which has become an increasing problem in Croatia.
As part of the project, 4 transnational meetings are planned. Prior to students’ camps, pedagogical aspects of work will be prepared respectively:
- exploring the wood industry and stone industry
- visits to museums
- visiting the project partners, schools and places where trainings will be conducted
- creating programs for the camp, activities in nature, specific aspects of the area, etc.
- identification of skills for realization / comparison of different methods of pedagogical work
- developing an educational and cultural internship preparation program
STONE AND WOOD – 1st meeting with project partners
The project stakeholders from Poland and France met with the representatives of “Klesarska škola” (Stonemasonry school) in Pučišća (Brač) - December 2019. in order to agree upon following steps to be undertaken toward realization of a new project named "Stone&Wood". (Pierre et bois”).
At the meeting, the representatives of schools and other educational centers presented the work of their teams. Our guests also participated in a practical lesson where they got acquainted with the stone work from the perspective of second grade students and their mentors. They also “visited” the math classroom where they were warmly welcomed by a graduate Jakov Marjanović who demonstrated the use of smart boards and interactive portal "Nikola Tesla" (Croatian national portal for distance learning), the platform using innovative approaches to learning mathematics.
All the gathered experts were delighted by Pučišća, not surprisingly though, and they were especially intrigued by the school workshop and by a stone miniature model of the St. Peter’s Basilica of Vatican, the work of a local artist Josip Radić. It was also agreed that our students would visit France and Poland (12 students – via Student Mobility Group Exchange), and in return, their students would be our dear guests, most likely in September this year.
