🙏 In partnership with Fondazione Città di Roncade, our school is most pleased to celebrate the volunteering opportunity hosted by H-IS: a Digital storytelling workshop delivered by our DP 1 students to public primary school students in Roncade as part of their CAS program. The program rolled out every Wednesday throughout the month of May, 4 meetings which culminated with the production of a comic book and an animation movie – poster of the workshop here. This workshop aimed at building bridges with the local community in Roncade, enhancing digital literacy, building creative and critical thinking skills, fostering empathy and understanding and providing a sense of purpose and agency. A big thank you to our 4 student volunteers! The initiative was featured in the local press here and here. Please watch the video of the sessions here.

🙏 Celebrating the project Digital literacy workshop for senior citizens of Roncade “Smartphone, Istruzioni per l’uso”, in collaboration with Fondazione Città di Roncade. A big thank you to our 15+ volunteers from DP 1 who brilliantly led the six sessions between January and March for our 40+ seniors in Roncade, their dedication and commitment is truly inspiring! Through the workshop our students have demonstrated leadership, compassion and sense of responsibility that we can all be proud of. On behalf of the school community I would like to express our sincere appreciation and gratitude for their time, energy and enthusiasm in making this workshop a success. Please take a moment to read through the articles on this initiative in the local newspapers: Il Gazzettino di Treviso 10th March 2023, Fondazione Citta di Roncade 1/2023 (page 18) and Roncade notizie Marzo 2023 (page 34-35). 

🎗️ Celebrating service opportunities with H-College students startups for our DP 1 students. In an effort to provide to our students service learning opportunities on Campus during their free study periods we have matched them with three H-College student startups for an internship-like collaboration: Chiara Schettino – Rosso (blood donation), article here; Riccardo Lovisetto – KeyBrain, (psychologists, mental coach, etc) article here; Filippo Casellato – Etrash, article here. Several applications have been received already and the three startups have chosen the candidates who are currently in internship with them.

🙏 On the Service as Action side we are pleased to feature the toy collection project organised by MYP2 student Lupo Zanatta, poster here. Lupo’s toy collection goes to the Pediatric Ward of Ca’ Foncello Hospital in Treviso and his commitment to the cause originates from watching a video in class. Well done Lupo!
