CrEsco
Recreational Contexts for Education and Discovery
The CrEsco project was created to offer new educational settings in informal and non-formal contexts, such as an urban wood, a school garden or a play carpentry workshop. A free programme for schools, with in-person and online activities, dedicated to nature and to “learning by doing and exploring”.
The in-person package includes 2 different activities held over one morning (9:00–12:00) at Casa San Benedetto (Strada delle Saline 58, Senigallia) and Bosco Mio (Strada delle Saline, Senigallia).
Project “CrEsco – Contesti Ricreativi di Educazione e Scoperta” – CUP E49D2000480008 – under the “EduCare” call for funding of non-formal and informal education projects and play activities for the empowerment of children and adolescents
