Na četvrtom susretu učenika u Ateni sudjelovala su četiri učenika i dvije nastavnice. Tijekom susreta učenici su predstavili dio svoje kulturne baštine, posjetili najvažnije povijesne lokalitete u Ateni, otišli na jednodnevni izlet u Delfi, sudjelovali u dramskim radionicama i radionicama za pripremu debate. Zadnji dan susreta sudjelovali su u debati i uprizorili kratku predstavu.
Nastavnici su pisali blog, a ovo je tekst naših profesorica o prvom danu susreta:
The journey from our small island to Athens was quite long. Although we are the closest partner (868 km), our journey took 17 hours. However, fatigue disappeared the moment we saw our hosts, welcoming us to Greece. It was wonderful to see some old friends again and meet new ones.
Monday morning was nice and sunny. We were welcomed at 10 Geniko Lykeio Kaisarianis school by the head mistress and then students presented their hometowns, seen from the minority’s point of view. We learned a lot about our towns and observed them from a different perspective.
After a small break and our first encounter with Greek cuisine students gathered in a gym to participate in an interesting and useful ice-breaking workshop based on trust.
There are Shooting range field and The National Resistance Museum in school’s vicinity in memory of the aggression and innocent victims of 1944.
Students went home to have lunch with their hosts and teachers met at Kaisariani square to try some delicious Greek specialties (suvlaki, salads, kofti, etc.).
In the afternoon students returned and we went to the centre to visit a fascinating Byzantine church of Virgin Mary, next to the Metropolitan church of Athens.
The students’ exchange meeting in Athens, the Cradle of Western Civilization, had a marvellous beginning.
