This Friday, June 13, at 6 p.m., at the Esplai GISC (Grup Infantil Sant Cosme), on Ebre street s / n of El Prat de Llobregat, the learning project service of improvement of public space “La Placeta” is inaugurated, in which the children of the esplai together with the neighbors of the neighborhood and the support of the City Council have rehabilitated the square located in front of the entity.
The initiative began in the 2012-13 academic year and in all this time about twenty boys and girls from the “Draco” group, children from 8 to 12 years old, have participated in the esplai. During this period, the children imagined how they would like the square to be, designed a model, gathered opinions from neighbourhood organisations, met with El Prat Town Council and, finally, carried out various actions to improve public space: rehabilitating benches, marking spaces, establishing children’s play areas and improving green spaces…
Service learning experience
This project will end this Friday 13 with some pending actions such as polishing the swings, repainting children’s games, and disseminating it among the neighborhood. In addition, to celebrate the rehabilitation of “La Placeta” there will be a party open to the neighborhood with the collaboration of the La Roda Foundation and diplomas of recognition will be given to the children participating in the project.
The project “We rehabilitate La Placeta in the Sant Cosme neighborhood” is one of the service learning experiences that is part of the educational proposal “Weaving Committed Citizenship” of the Federació Catalana de l’Esplai.
The Sant Cosme Children’s Group is a non-profit organization that is part of the Catalan Federation of Recreation, and that since 1973 develops a continuous and recognized social and educational work in the neighborhood of Sant Cosme del Prat de Llobregat and that this year will celebrate its 40th anniversary.
