EU ACHIEVEMENTS IN TRANSPORT

Thanks to EU policy, the last 20 years have seen considerable progress in Europe's transport sector, leading to:

• Safer skies, seas and roads
• Decent working hours for people working in the transport industry
• More transport choices for travellers & businesses
• Less pollution

Technological progress towards cleaner transport

In the wood factory where Jose Ramón Ortiz Serrano works INFER in Cubas de la Sagra some years ago they demanded some mechanic tools to the government for move the most heaviest wood pieces. Months later the government of Spain brought to the factory two mechanical arms for transport the wood, that arms were financiated by EU, by a fund for the wood and raw materials factories to improve theirs production. Those mechanic arms  have increased the production of the factory and also have improve the workers conditions that knowadays don have to ttransport the wood by themselves and their backs are now free for pains.

What would have happened if we hadn't entered the EU?

GYMKANA

Last December we did a gymkana with many games for the children of the first curse in the Recas' football field. Here you can see some videos and pictures of the activity. The objectives of the activity were to promote our team in the social media, to disseminate our project with the rest of the school and to promote sports as values to integrate people of different nationalities.
