The activities is development and realization of different projects. We participated in project with French young , Polish and other partners. We are interested in learning about other cultures, to take part in a European project and to know other people with the same interests.. Our organization includes young students who are interested in ecology, customs and traditions, environment protection, culture, sport , social problems, community activities . The organization includes the youngsters with fewer opportunities (social ,economic ,cultural, educational).

Horezu, a small mountain town, is situated in the south-western part of the country and is famous-nationally and internationally for a wonderful tradition, that has been preserved and passed over from generation: pottery.
The landscapes are amazing and the people’s hospitality is impressive.
These are the reasons why tourism is the main preoccupation of the officials and the local people.
Our school Gr. S. “Constantin Brancoveanu” Horezu is well-equipped and one of the biggest schools in the region, as over 2000 students are educated here by 100 teachers and engineers every year. The school provides education for both primary students-who start school at the age of 6 or 7 – and secondary students-who finish it in their eighteens or nineteens. Our students study English and French as foreign languages and some of them have already been integrated in a few projects in the past few years. That is why our school is really interested in getting involved in other European projects, as this is a great opportunity for both our students and our teachers to broaden their cultural horizon by learning more about other cultures and other traditions; to understand the need for better education and equal opportunities for all students, regardless of their social or cultural background.
We intend to increase our students’ motivation for learning by interaction with other students from different European countries, even through the use of modern communication and technology. These intercultural activities could help them improve their abilities and know themselves better and offer them the chance to become more tolerant and accept the idea of ’’difference’’ among people.
