From Málaga to Stratford. First stage of this Comenius project “Young People, European Futures”

The first stage of our Comenius project “Young People, European Futures” was for planning details of the rest of the project. Our teacher Emilio and two of our students: Alfonso González and Lucía Auñón assisted to Stratford-Upon-Avon High School. Three of them came back very satisfied of the visit. Here you have a summary writen by Lucía and Alfonso.

What is Comenius? 
Comenius is a project organized by several European countries which main aim is to communicate students from several cities from Europe. Specifically, our project involves collecting information about job opportunities for young people. That information will be uploaded in “eTwinning”, the social platform we will use to keep in contact with the rest of European high schools.
When we were in Stratford we had to plan, with the rest of Comenius students, the activity we would do when they came to Spain. The first activity will be an orienteering event and then we will play some games at the beach.
Working with them was the best part of the project, because now we have many foreign friends and we have improved our English.
 
Personal experience
We have enjoyed it a lot, and we would repeat if we could. We were surrounded by English people, and we couldn’t speak Spanish, this made us feel amazed.
The most important value we have achieved is to get by ourselves in a totally different atmosphere, where we were almost alone.
Pur host families were very welcoming, and we felt as if we were in our homes. We visited the city of Stratford and some surrounding villages, like Bourton-on-the-Water.
Alfonso, Emilio and Lucía
