CHAPTER 1-THE  STORM

One day the sky filled with black clouds, the wind howled and a terrible hurricane approached. Dorothy picked up Bobò and took refuge in the house with her uncles, but the hurricane swept away her little house.

CHAPTER 2 – THE JOURNEY OF WISDOM (IN OZ)

4th Primary School of Tyrnavos, Greece

Dory’s heart pounded as she landed softly in the magical realm of Oz, onto a carpet of moss far from the whirlwind that had carried her away. Surrounded by gentle hills and whispering trees that echoed the charm of Oz’s legendary landscapes, she discovered a small village that exuded both wonder and wisdom.

The village, reminiscent of the enchanting world Oz, featured a quaint school built from reclaimed wood and vibrant recycled materials—a true emblem of sustainability and hope.

In this warm haven of learning, Dory met Iris, a kind teacher with sparkling eyes whose passion for education lit up the room. 

Iris explained that quality education was the key to understanding nature and rebuilding their precious land—a lesson as vital in Oz as it is anywhere. 

“Quality education,” Iris declared, “empowers us to face our challenges, to innovate sustainably, and to unite for a brighter future.

At the village school, learning went far beyond simple reading or arithmetic. The classes delved into nature’s secrets: the cycle of the seasons, the synergy of ancient traditions with modern science to rejuvenate the forests, and the ways shared knowledge could inspire real change. Each lesson was a thread, weaving together the rich tapestry of Oz’s past with a hopeful vision for its future.

The images illustrating our story were generated with artificial intelligence, but our students also hand-drew the key scenes themselves.

PART-3 The Forest

Dalyan Naciye Tınaztepe Secondary School/Mehmet COŞKUN

Oz wasn't a magical place until you arrived in a land called Oz. In fact, Oz is a world once blessed with the abundance of nature, but now in danger of extinction due to global warming and industrial pollution

Everything in Oz had become colorless, and nature's power to maintain balance had been disrupted.

When Dory arrives in Oz, she comes to a roadside and meets the Scarecrow at the beginning of the road.

PART-4 RAIN

The Scarecrow does not have proper environmental awareness. He does not know the balance between man and nature.

However, Dorty and Bobo tell her about the forests, the importance of rain to the forests, the degradation of the ecosystem, and how important it is to all living things.

The Scarecrow is filled with a desire to protect the environment, concerned that the forests will be destroyed and the rains will not fall appropriately for the climatic conditions.

Together they decide to fight to protect and re-green the environment, prevent deforestation and prevent climate change.
