Pictures From The Caps of The Bottles/Czech Republic

Children in our school were picking caps of bottles several years. There is a company, which want to pay for these caps. It took always a lot of time to earn some money, because of quantity of the caps we need. In the past we were sending money to "Ecole humaniste Kirikou". It is a school in Conakry Kipé, Guinea for orphans or very poor children. This year we decided to send money from the caps to Tanzania together with the money from the Christmas fair.
Unfortunately this year is the last time, when the company wants to caps and our students wanted to say goodbye to the caps and make several pictures from them.

Italian Students' Poem For Peace /Italy

PEACE
This is my dream
People all around the world
Poor and rich
Black and white
Women and men
Can leave together in peace
I 'd like there are no
Inequalities and discriminations
World is beautiful
Because it's different
I wish with all my heart
That people are judged
For their principles
And not for their origins
