SPEECHES FOR THE CLOSING EVENT IN WILHENSHAVEN
TEACHERS
The Comenius Project
PORT CITIES AS PLACES OF MUTUAL ENCOUNTER has had a strong impact on
us a s teachers and members of our school community.
On the one hand the
project made possible to know the culture and language of other
European cities which have in common with us the fact of being washed
by the sea. This implies having received many cultural influences
along History.
Our port activity
and the influence it has exerted on the city has been a relevant
topic in our curriculum. However during these two years it has been
highlighted in all subjects.
Important
representatives of the port have come to our school and given
lectures on their particular fields of knowledge. Another special
moment was the photo travelling exhibition, made by the Polish team
and shown in all partner towns.
As the name of the
project illustrates, we have had the enormous luck of meeting
colleagues from other European countries. They have kindly shown us
their schools and their working conditions. This enables us to
compare other school systems and it has enriched our teaching
practice.
This travelling has
deepened our awareness of being teachers in Europe, by sharing
experiences and gaining friendships between teachers and pupils
across Europe.
Not only our
students but also as teachers have we seen the importance of
learning English and at least two more foreign languages.
Teachers and
students have broadened our knowledge about the countries
participating in the project and students have also acquired new
skills, for instance airport vocabulary.
We must thank the
friendly welcome we received in all countries.
In Adana, we will
never forget the visit to the beautiful city but above all the trip
to Cappadocia, Tarso, Mersin, those places where the history of the
Mediterranean culture started. In Gdansk we cannot forget the visit
to the historical centre and the place where the second world war
started, the shipyards, Marieska Street, the amber shops etc. in
Wilhenshaven we would like to mention the visit to the war ships,the
boat trip in the Waden Sea and the visits to Bremen and Hamburg.
We would like you to
remember the visit to Spain and keep in your minds the beautiful
Generalife gardens full of colour and light the same as the sea of
our harbours.
Finally with that
memory we can only tell you that you will always be welcome to Spain
and to our school.
THANK
YOU
STUDENTS
Hello, good evening
. My name is Francisco Solano and I come from Cartagena,Spain. The
name of my school is IES Mediterráneo.
When I was offered
the chance to take part in this Comenius Project I wasn´t sure what
this would imply. I thought it consisted in just travelling abroad.
Now, after these two
years , speaking on behalf of my schoolmates I can say that it hasn´t
been only travelling, but also the opportunity to meet new friends ,
their families, their schools, food customs,etc.
We have learnt more
things about Cartagena´s harbor and about its history and job
possibilities.
We have realized the
importance of learning languages. For instance, although we don´t
speak much German, some of my friends have used the expression “Ich
liebe dich” with fluency. We Know that “ Dobranotz” is Good
Morning in Polish and “lavabos” means the same in Turkish as in
Spanish.
We have also learnt
that summer doesn´t exist in Northern Europe .
The friendship with
our partners will go on after the project, we are sure of that. In
spite of all the differences we share the feeling that WE ARE ALL
EUROPEANS, we have more things in common than differences. To sum up,
WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT BUT THE SAME.
THANK
YOU VERY MUCH

SÉPTIMO Y ÚLTIMO
ENCUENTRO EN WILHENSHAVEN (ALEMANIA) DEL 31 MAYO AL 5 JUNIO DE 2013.
CLAUSURA DEL PROYECTO
COMENIUS CIUDADES PORTUARIAS COMO LUGAR DE ENCUENTRO MUTUO.
El instituto Mediterráneo de
Cartagena hizo la última movilidad dentro del Proyecto Comenius
CIUDADES PORTUARIAS COMO LUGARES DE ENCUENTRO MUTUO. Han participado
las profesoras Josefa García, Leticia Jiménez y Joaquina Pérez y
los alumnos Claudia Rodríguez, Mónica Tzenova, Agustín Pagán,
Francisco Solano y Francisco Javier Lucas.
Tuvo lugar en Wilhemshaven (Alemania)
desde el 31 de mayo al 5 de junio de 2013.
Los otros países integrantes del
proyecto eran Turquía, Polonia y por supuesto el país coordinador y
anfitrión de este último encuentro, Alemania.
En esta ocasión se habló de lo que
han sido estos dos años y de la experiencia tan positiva que hemos
vivido alumnos y profesores.
Hemos visitado el puerto de
Wilhemshaven, montado en barco por el Waden Sea, en el mar del norte.
Tuvimos la suerte de avistar focas. Vimos los animales que deja la
marea baja en la playa tras retirarse el mar. Visitamos la hermosa
ciudad de Bremen- con su interesante casco histórico y la estatua de
los famosos músicos. También fuimos a visitar el impresionante
puerto de Hamburgo.
Por último nos despedimos de los que
han sido nuestros compañeros de proyecto y de vivencias durante
estos dos años esperando que las amistades creadas se mantengan en
el tiempo y que quizá nos encontremos en otro proyecto europeo en el
futuro.
We would like to
thank all our friends from the other participating countries;
students teachers and families who have so warmly welcomed us in
their cities. Thanks and all the best for all of you.
IES MEDITERRANEO. MEETING GDANSK

The
worldwide increase in container traffic, and particularly in the Mediterranean,
which accounts for more than 10% annually, justifies the construction of new
transhipment ports in the Suez Canal and the Strait of Gibraltar Port of Cartagena
is located in the western Mediterranean, in the influence area of the Strait of Gibraltar Cartagena Port of Cartagena
The
creation of container traffic would involve an important change in the port
activity towards the clean traffic of general goods, in which the port
operations and logistics add great value to the transport chain.
These
actions have led the Port Authority of Cartagena, and its Board of Directors,
which is made up by various administrations and institutions including the
State Administration, the Regional Government of the Region of Murcia, the City
Hall of Cartagena, the Chambers of Commerce, the business representatives of
the Region of Murcia and the unions which represent most of the workers, to
design a new strategic planning focused on locating an external basin, designed
exclusively for the container and general goods traffic on the coast of Murcia.
The
comprehensive studies carried out for choosing the site have led to the
conclusion that the only and best location on the coast of the Region of Murcia
is El Gorguel Bay. The main arguments for this are the following:
·
The bathymetry, since it has
the necessary depth. It must never be over 50m., which would greatly increase
the cost of the infrastructure and would make the project unfeasible, neither
less than 25m. in order to have the greatest depth possible.
·
The easy access to the road
and railway transportation networks. Nowadays a port cannot be developed
without efficient connections to the national transport networks.
·
The possibility of building
areas for logistic activities of up to 200Ha, in the surrounding area of the Escombreras Valley
·
The low seafloor
environmental assessment…
·
… and zero interference of
the coastal sediment transport, and therefore, causing no impact on the beaches
of the area.
The
new infrastructure that would be provided to operators is the following:
·
A high capacity Container
Terminal: 2 million TEU in the first phase and 3.5 million TEU in the second
phase.
·
A Multipurpose Terminal for
clean traffic and 4 ro-ro berths.
·
A Logistic Activity Area
covering from 70 to 200Ha.
The
port would be located 1km. from the bay
of Portman
The
characteristics of the new port would be:
·
A surface area of 190Ha.
·
The main quay 1,465m. long.
·
Quays with surface area
3,295m. long.
·
Quays without surface area
1,000m. long.
·
A breakwater 4,670m. long.
The
new basin would be connected by land through a road tunnel and a railway
tunnel, preserving the Fausilla
Mountains
The
total investment foreseen exceeds 1,100 million Euros, which would be shared
between the public investment, for which the Port Authority is responsible, and
the private investment. The public investment in infrastructure for the
complete development of the basin would be carried out in two phases, with a
total cost of 650 million Euros. The private investment would finance the rest
of the infrastructure, as well as the equipment of the terminal. The investment
considers the construction of breakwaters, quays, land filling, pavements,
facilities and all of the equipment necessary for the exploitation of the
terminals such as the quay cranes, gantry cranes, platforms and trucks among
others.
This
project would create important business opportunities in many sectors,
including activities related with the cargo, handling, storage, transhipment,
consignment, quality control, mechanical inspection, machinery maintenance,
financial institutions, hotels, restaurants and others. The study that has been
carried out by the Technical University of Cartagena estimates an employment
impact of 500 direct jobs once the port begins operations, to a total of more
than 3,000 jobs once the basin
of El Gorguel
For
this reason the project is considered a unique opportunity for the Region of
Murcia, the area of Cartagena

EL IES MEDITERRÁNEO EN GDANSK
El IES Mediterráneo de Cartagena asiste en Gdansk (Polonia) al sexto
encuentro dentro del proyecto Comenius “Ciudades portuarias como lugar de
encuentro mutuo”
El IES Mediterráneo de Cartagena
ha participado en este encuentro en la ciudad de Gdansk en Polonia en este proyecto durante los días 8 al 12 de
marzo de 2013.
El centro anfitrión era el
Gdanskie Autonomiczne Gimnazjum, centro de gran tradición en la histórica
ciudad portuaria. También asistieron los equipos de Wilhelmshaven (Alemania) y
Adana (Turquía).
En esta ocasión, los profesores y
alumnos visitamos la exposición "Caminos de la libertad", exposición
sobre la lucha contra la dictadura comunista en Polonia a través del sindicato
Solidaridad encabezado por Lech Walesa. Los alumnos trabajaron conceptos como
la democracia, unión sindical, lucha laboral, y realizaron un debate.
Al día siguiente visitamos el
edificio histórico del Ayuntamiento de Gdansk, donde nos explicaron la gran
importancia económica de la ciudad desde la época medieval. Pudimos ver, por
medio de fotos, la terrible destrucción a la que fue sometido durante la Segunda Guerra
Mundial. En segundo lugar visitamos una casa típica comerciante de Gdansk. A
media mañana visitamos el Museo del Ámbar, un preciado producto de gran importancia
para el desarrollo económico de la ciudad.
El tercer día visitamos las
instalaciones de la escuela secundaria de Polonia y nos dieron una clase
inicial en la lengua polaca. A continuación nos dirigimos al Museo Nacional de
Gdansk donde se llevaron a cabo las ponencias de los diferentes puntos de
trabajo y expusimos nuestro material sobre el futuro desarrollo del puerto de
Cartagena.
Después de este enriquecedor
encuentro nos despedimos hasta el próximo y último encuentro en Alemania en
junio donde se clausurará este proyecto.
