Wisdom is knowing how to stay with the difference without wanting to eliminate the difference

Gregory Bateson

Eco-inclusive workshops with Astronavelab astronauts, at the RULLI FRULLI station in Finale Emilia.

The children, supported by the team of Astronauts - the strength and mind of this laboratory! - are transformed into real "artisans", entering the work right from the creative process that anticipates the creation of the objects.

A collective work, in which the expected result - which often passes for error - is the outcome of a process that leads to something unique, because it is the result of the collaboration (and contamination) of many: creativity is a value, beauty is a right from which everyone can benefit!

Astronauts at school!

Don't forget hospitality; some, by practicing it, have welcomed angels without knowing it

Eb, 13,2

The annual "ecological inclusion" planning sees educational proposals aimed at satisfying respect for the environment and the invitation to welcome and value differences.

As part of this project, thanks to funding from ODV DIOGENE, since January the older boys and girls from our school have been able to go to Finale Emilia to participate in a series of ECOINCLUSIVE WORKSHOPS, carried out together with children with disabilities from ASTRONAVELAB, the socio-occupational laboratory of Rulli Frulli Lab ETS APS, an association that works to spread an inclusive culture by supporting the activities of the Banda Rulli Frulli, the musical inclusion project social and upcycle of the Carlo and Gugliemo Andreoli School of Music Foundation of Mirandola.

AstronaveLab: doors open to parents!

Getting together is a start

staying together is progress

working together is a success

H.Ford

Parents and children enthusiastically participated in the construction workshop with natural and recycled materials, together with the Astronauts of the Lab, in the spaces of the Rulli Frulli Station.

The laboratory was structured exactly like the workshops offered to children: construction, assembly, planning and, above all, precious team work whose outcome was decreed by everyone's contribution!

We thank you very much

the educators and astronauts of AstronaveLab for their hospitality and professionalism,

the bar kitchen station for the excellent brunch,

ODV Diogene for financing the project and…

All the parents who enthusiastically participated in the workshop!

An Awaited Visit!

"It was a joy to be with you"

Mirko, Astronaut

We know it by now: when we see the colorful Rulli Frulli van, a special day awaits us!

After two months of eco-inclusive workshops carried out at the RULLI FRULLI station in Finale Emilia, the astronauts, who have now become our affectionate friends, came to visit us, bringing us the fruit of all the extraordinary work done together!

On Thursday 23 March, in an atmosphere of anxious anticipation, the boys and girls of AstronaveLab filled the garden of our school with their festive presence, giving us the games and tools designed - and created! - with children and parents on our journey together.

The greatest educational asset derived from this experience is having offered and felt glances capable of seeing resources in all the people we were lucky enough to meet: the extraordinary objects, created together using deconstructed and waste material, are concrete witnesses that "beauty" is everywhere, you just need to know how to see it!

Thanks to all the astronauts for the precious time you dedicated to us: we look forward to seeing you soon (you promised us!) because Mirko is absolutely right: it's a joy to be together!
