St Joseph's PS books out in the world
Where did the St Josephs PS ‘Yes we can farm sustainably’ books get to? They went to rural schools in Africa, Europe, Asia, North and Central America. Isn’t that amazing? Most of these schools do not have English as their first language. The teachers found your books provided simple children’s English as well as what I had taken them to the 7th World Environmental Educators Congress, at Marrakesh, Morocco for – our farmlands and some sustainability issues.
How did the books get shared? There were different types of sessions at the Congress. The books were allocated one of the Round Table discussions. These were designed to enable small groups to look at things in detail. I also shared the books with people at other times informally, especially as I was trying to find rural schools to give them to. I discovered that there were not many teachers from rural places at the Congress, most came from cities. There was also a Moroccan schools program running with the Congress. I spent some time with teachers there.
The teachers at the Round Table came from Mauritius, India, Kenya, Morocco, and France. They took the website links to the books. The Eco-ecoles (schools) program was for about 15 Moroccan schools. Three books went to rural schools I found here. One book went to each of Puerto Rico and Canada. Some of the teachers were able to choose the book which best fitted their curriculum or environment. I took the last book to France. It went to the primary school on the Somme which keeps the memory of the ANZACs from WWI alive.
The Four Farming Brothers went to Betsy Jardine from the Whycocomagh Education Centre, in Whycocomagh, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Water that Saved the Crop went to Mohamed Fal by post From Asrir Ecole , of the Sous Massa Deraa Academy at Asrir. Morocco
Bats on Farmland went to Ana Olga Gonzalez From the Categio Universitario de San Juan, San Juan, Puerto Rico
This book was chosen specifically because the children there fear bats and the story shows how important the bats are in the (farmland) environment.
One Summer went to Abdel Jallal Sokrat From the Ecole Gullard Jallal, about 15km out of Marrakesh, on the road to Fez, Morocco
Saving the barley went to the Directeur at the Ecole elementaire publique Victoria at Villers Brettonneux in, France.
I chose this school for two reasons: 1 it was in a rural area, 2 but more so because this is the school which has an ongoing link with Victoria.
I chose Saving the Barley for them as I thought that this would be a crop likely to be grown in this area.
I had hoped to visit here, but it was too difficult as we got to France at the end of the school year, so I posted it.
Pesty Solutions went to Mohamed Azzaoui From the Ecole Saghro I Alnif, Alnif, Tinghir, Morocco
Next term, I am hopeful that St Joseph’s PS will get messages back from around the world about their books and these schools. Why that long? The Congress was in June-the last month in the Northern Hemisphere school year. Their new school year starts in September.
