Málaga to Palermo. Students tell their experiences

Our teachers Lola Garrido and Ana Bernal travelled to Palermo with Livia, Ricardo y Miguel as the second mobility of our Comenius project.

The students themselves describe their experiences

Miguel

We arrived to Palermo at 9 o’clock, when we were in the plane we were very nervous, but very happy.

When I arrived to Francesco’s house I had dinner and I talked with Francesco’s family about football, and Malaga.

I went to the high-school and we did a PowerPoint, we spoke English with the people, and we worked with the students.

I met with the students, and it’s really nice talk with the students because you can know new people and improve your English.

We went to Cefalu, a village with a beautiful beach, and in the beach we played football and we took photos.

I haven’t words to describe this trip, because I was laughing all the day. Now, I have new friends in different countries and I have visited a new city: Palermo. I hope to return the next summer.

 We spent the first day flying,and when we arrived Palermo I went to Giovanni’s house by car. He lived in a small village at 24km from Palermo.
Next day we went to the nhigh school by bus and we worked together, Spanish, Italians, Germans..
This evening we went for a walk in Palermo’s city center. In the night we went to Riccardo Botta’s house and we had a very very good time, we were talking, playing games and Riccardo Botta played the piano.
Third day we went to school and in the evening we went to Palermo’s PASEO MARITIMO and we stayed in some grass of a park next to the sea, we were playing football. This night we went to Irene’s house and we were talking, eating and singing.
Fourth day we went to Cefalú and we were on the beach for hours, we played volleyball and four boys, including me, swam in the sea. In the night we went to Palermo’s city center and go for a walk.
Fifth day we woke up and we went for a walk in Piana, after, we go to the airport and we come back to Málaga.

This trip have been my best trip yer. We have a good time there, it was to funny and a really good experience for us. Meeting people from other countries is amazing, I think I can’t forget this trip. We did lots of friends there, we want to come back this summer

Students group at Palermo. Comenius

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.
