02+Activities+and+meetings

The local activities in the project are both curriculum based work in the subjects of Nature and Science, Norwegian , English and arts and craft. We have done an exhibition, logo competitions , text and presentations about Predators. Students and Teachers participated in 5 meetings abroad and hosted one Bi- lateral meeting in Lillehammer. || The meeting was held in Montbui just outside Barcelona. Students were very fortunate to be able to stay with hostfamilies during the two days in Montbui. The Third day we all left for the pyreenees and Caixa Catalunya's Social Work is encouraging research **activities in its centre in Caixa Catalunya's Les Planes de Son**, which are aimed at promoting the conservation of natural spaces and raising awareness of our natural heritage. Both members from the scientific/university community and members from the centre's educational team can take part in these research activities, which are assessed and supervised at all times by university professors and scientific experts. Tracking in the mountains for traces of predators, working in the laboratory and visiting the wildlife outdoor centre and enjoying the well prepared and well tasting food of the kitchen made the stay. The 5 Teachers and 6 Students were very satisfied and very motivated to go on with the project. ||  || Mars 2012 || Students and teachers from our partenr school on Island visted Vargstad and Lillehammer i Mars 2012.

After having spent two days in Porto in the weekend they travelled to Pouca de Aguiar. The partnerscoolPortugal is located inthe small town of Vila Poucade Aguiar, an hour's drive from Porto.Tuesday we went hiking in the mountains to look at an old wolf trap."In the olddays," the wolves were lured into a circle of stone and there was a goat tied as bait.The pen was designed so that the wolves could not get out again. The hunters could thus kill the wolf with stones,a stick or a rifle.The prey was placed on the donkey and the hunter could go around from house to house in the village to get food as thanks for saving teh in habitants from the bigbad wolf.
