Day 12 (10.10): Planting Trees

English: the following is a personal report by Hajar from Morocco:

The day began with an engaging environmental workshop, held at the local primary school. The team participated in tree planting activities, contributing to a green and healthier environment. Alongside the ecological efforts, we spent joyful moments interacting with the children, we were playing games, sharing laughter, and distributing small gifts including sweets, books and coloring materials. The initiative not only brought smiles to the children’s faces but also environmental awareness from a young age.

After lunch, we resumed our work at the ceramic atelier, focusing on the burning phase of the ceramic pieces we had previously crafted. This hands-on experience allowed us to deepen our understanding of traditional ceramic techniques and continue our own creative journey.

The evening was filled with music and joy as we gathered to sing and enjoy dinner together. Later, I found some quiet time for myself, which I used to read and practice embroidery - a peaceful and fulfilling end to a productive day.

The day was a beautiful blend of community service, artistic expression, and personal growth. Each activity contributed to a sense of purpose and connection - with nature, with others and with myself.
