The school is in a big park and the outdoor life is an tradition in the pedagogical activities as an integrated part of the educational offer and on this aspect we found ourselves in line with the Swedish School from Ale with which we have started an exchange of experiences on the 50/50 project which started in both schools in January 2015.
This year in particular the teaches are learning more about outdoor education in an cooperation with the department for educational science of the University of Bologna.
