Mēs esam audze, mēs
nākam no skolas.
No skolas, kur gaisma,
no skolas, kas tilts.
Lai paliek, lai paliek, lai
paliek šeit draugi,
Lai paliek še mūsu sirds.
Gaisma mums sirdīs,
gaisma mums domās,
Gaismu mēs solāmies,
solāmies nest!
Lai paliek, lai paliek, lai
paliek šeit draugi,
Lai paliek še mūsu sirds.

24. Comenius project 2004-2007
The sea and the Internet:
communication through surfing
The seas have always played an important role and shaped the life and the development of
land dwellers.
In this project the special information about the various seas and their meaning shall be
worked out. In this context the “communication through surfing the Internet" will play a
special role.
For the pupils the knowledge about the seas, the culture and the economy/tourism gives a
broad picture. Through the cooperation of the 16 coastal countries and the associated
partners the pupils have the possibility to acquire knowledge about their own geographical
place in a wider context.
This has a special relevance for the pupils’ further education.
