The coordinator of the LORESU project and the Erasmus students have read fragments of different texts which have been writen or spoken by  Nobel  Peace Prizes.

 

On February 21st, we celebrate the DAY OF THE CANARIAN WRITERS. The  Canarian Government has decided to set this day to commemorate all the Canarian writers who have helped to develop and spread the culture in and of our Islands.

This year AGUSTÍN ESPINOSA has been chosen as a relevant figure of the Surrealism not only in Canary Islands but also in the Spanish literature.

IES LA OLIVA is celebrating this day with different activities that the Spanish Language teacher Marita de León has organised. So the students from 2º ESO are creating an exhibition with the life and work of different Canarian writers. On the school radio, RADIOLIVA students who take part in the ERASMUS + PROJECT LORESU have interviewed Marita de León and this postcad is going to be heard by all our students next week.

For this day we have organised an activity where the students and teachers have visited a cheese factory where we have learnt the process of making majorero cheese. We have also visited Puerto del Rosario, the capital city of Fuerteventura. A guided visit has helped us to know a more about the history, traditions and also the future plans that the city has.

Thank you very mucho to Puerto del Rosario Town Hall for its warm welcoming and also José Bolaño (Tourist Information office) who was really kind during all the guided visit.

Our Erasmus + LORESU is a multidisciplinary project which has a big variety of activities which deals with Literature, Arts, History, Geography and Biology.

Fuerteventuras was named BIOSPHERE RESERVE in May 2009 due to its Cultural values, ethnological, natural, marine, landscape and geology, and the commitment of the island of Fuerteventura with renewable energy, water management, or a responsible fishing.

The love we feel for our environment has done that the flora and fauna take an important role on our Project. We are very grateful to the ENVIRONMENT DEPARTMENT OF  FUERTEVENTUTA COUNCIL COUNCIL. Its representant, Natalia Évora and the expert on Environmental Education Mónica Barrera have supported our proiect and have been really involved in our initiative.

On January, 23rd, we visited OASIS PARK FUERTEVENTURA  where we learned the importance of taking care and preservation of the flora and fauna. Then, on the 24th, the ENVIRONMENTAL DEPARTMENT OF  FUERTEVENTURA COUNCIL organised a very amazing activity in Jandía where we realed a loggerhead turtle. The representant of the Environmental Department and the expert explained us the importance of the humeral, they work in trying to recuperate the tutles and the ir programme of extension of the reproductive habitat of the loggerhead turtle in the Macaronesia.

The main aim with the release of the turtle ,which was called LORESU, was to make people aware of the fragility of the marine world.

Fuerteventura is the oldest island in the Canaries. The importance of its geology has been also an important issue in order to have been named Biosphere Reserve. For this reason we visited Ajuy which has been a natural monument since 1994 due to the fact that in this place the oldest rocks of the Canary Islands are located and which tell us the history of the origin and formation of Fuerteventura more than 70 millions years ago.
