00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:21,030
This is our video project. We are a group of 22 students from Galileo Galilei's high school in Alcorcón, Madrid, Spain.

2
00:00:21,030 --> 00:00:32,030
Our school is one of the oldest in the town and it's also one of the most enthusiastic ones.

3
00:00:32,030 --> 00:00:39,030
Always ready to engage in new experiences and activities.

4
00:00:43,030 --> 00:00:47,030
The town is located on the south of Madrid, the capital of Spain.

5
00:00:47,030 --> 00:00:52,030
Madrid is in the center of our country and lives on the river Manzanares.

6
00:00:52,030 --> 00:00:58,030
Its climate is Mediterranean, with very cold winters and very hot summers.

7
00:00:58,030 --> 00:01:07,030
Spring and fall are the seasons where there is more rain, although it is one of the driest of capitals in Europe.

8
00:01:07,030 --> 00:01:14,030
It has got a lot of interesting landmarks, such as Plaza Mayor, Puerta de Alcalá, Royal Palace and so on.

9
00:01:14,030 --> 00:01:23,030
Not to forget the modern financial headquarters later, which seems like El Prado or Reina Sofia for the popular Real Madrid space.

10
00:01:23,030 --> 00:01:26,030
It is the third largest city in the European Union.

11
00:01:26,030 --> 00:01:34,030
It is an important place not only for finance and business, but also for entertainment, fashion, science and culture.

12
00:01:34,030 --> 00:01:39,030
People here like living outdoors and enjoy time with friends and family.

13
00:01:39,030 --> 00:01:52,310
Vina Global Scholar introduces our culture and our way of understanding the world with the students that are far away from Madrid.

14
00:01:52,310 --> 00:02:00,750
Sending messages and projects with beers in our e-classroom will help us get first-hand information about other cities in other countries.

15
00:02:01,310 --> 00:02:07,349
So we will be able to find similarities and differences which will get us closer.

16
00:02:07,930 --> 00:02:10,930
We will experience the feeling of a part of a community.

17
00:02:13,909 --> 00:02:23,729
We are aware of the necessity of having clear water in all parts of the planet, so we are happy to be a part of the project this year.

18
00:02:24,009 --> 00:02:29,009
At the end of this school year, we will have to learn about this important issue.

19
00:02:29,009 --> 00:02:33,009
We will try to make a difference in our city.

20
00:02:33,009 --> 00:02:35,009
Welcome to World Water!
