• Erasmus+ is EU funded education, youth and sports programme, which enables co-operation in these fields in Europe.

• Escola Básica e Secundária de Manteigas  takes part in a two year, EU funded Erasmus+ project starting in fall 2017

• the partner organizations come from Kirkkomännikkö (Finland), Romania (Iasi), Turkey (Ankara), Croatia (Slavonski Brod), Greece (Heraklion) and Spain (Torrevieja)

• the main objective of MADD in the classroom project is to improve students’ learning abilities through music, art, drama and dance

• by getting to know different cultures we achieve a wider perspective of art and the process of making art

• the project aims to create positive experiences to all children, encourage alternative thinking, build self esteem, give room to different forms of expressing oneself and solve problems through co-operation

• though all students at Escola Básica e Secundária de Manteigas  get a chance to take part in the project, the most enthusiastic students can join the Erasmus club

• the project also involves visits to the partner organizations, and we at Escola Básica e Secundária de Manteigas will also get to host our European friends’ visit to Manteigas
