Each year, our students, together with their parents and their teachers, are actively

engaged in celebrations related to European Day of Chocolate and learn about the

origins of cocoa and the first attempts to create this magic product that we know

today by the name of chocolate. Also, students find out about the ingredients that go

in the composition of chocolate and understand the nutritive benefits as well as the

side-effects of overeating it.

We get our students, from the youngest of them to the senior year ones, involved in

large scale activities. Also, Chocolate Day is celebrated nationally and our school is

extremely visible in our community on this special occasion.

CHOCOLATE DAY

Everybody knows how much young children adore chocolate but very few are aware of the

benefits it can bring but also about the health problems it can cause. The children will get the

chance to find out about the history of chocolate as well as less known information about this

dessert. They will decorate European countries shaped cookies with chocolate and coloured

confetti type sweets.

Aims of the activity:

getting the students to recognize the maps of different European countries by their borderline;

to cut cakes in the shape of certain European countries using templates to draw contours;

to name the ingredients they use;

to combine ingredients so as to give shape to a cake.

The students are divided in teams and will

choose the shape of a European country

and they will draw its contour on the sheet

of bread cake and then cut it accordingly.

The next step is for the students to fill the

cake and decorate it. As the students work,

chocolate related songs will be played.

All the activities were welcomed by pupils and teachers alike and exceeded

their expectations.

Our pupils enjoyed working in teams and expressed their interest in having

more such creative activities, as being part of a group really motivated them.

By implementing these activities we have managed to develop a higher sense

of identity and of belonging to a group or to a community.

Parents expressed their satisfaction with these activities, especially those we

personally took part in them.
