Sarah, from Paris, travelling to Portugal

HELLO WORLD !

My name is Sarah, and I'm 16 years old. I was born in Montpellier, a sunny city in the south of France, and now I live in Paris.

I've got two olders brothers who don't live with me, with me there is also my father and his wife. And my so nice grey cat :).

My mother lives in the middle of France and I go see her during school holidays.

I like readind some books and listening to music when I'm at home, but I'm not often at home because I practise basket-ball with my best friend two evenings in the week, and I have a match all sundays. I'm crazy about this game, I have been playing since I was a young girl and all my family practise it. And more, I love going to the cinema with my friends, or having a good time in a park with them.

I'm very interested to discover other countries, and I will be in Portugal in may, with other french friends, I'm very impatient and excited about the idea to meet other comenius team's people !

BYE EVERYBODY !

Happy Easter

A typical dish of the Easter holidays in Umbria is Pizza al formaggio (cheese pizza) that can not miss on the table. It’s served on Easter breakfast with salami and hard-boiled eggs.

23 April: "Sant Jordi" World Book Day

My Saint George

My Saint George is tall, tall and thin and also short and thick,

Nice, fun, ironic and, at the same time, serious, well-educated and witty.

Though sometimes quite long, it can be a light read,

You’ll get to the end in the blink of an eye.

Antique and also the latest release,

Rural, although also found in big cities,

A friend of libraries and shelves in many houses,

Widely read, admired and found in many languages,

Madness often hand in hand with common sense.

My Saint George is the best, my Saint George is…

to have a good book in my hands.

* This is a poem written by one of our students dedicated to Saint George. On 23 April we celebrate the Day of the Book by giving books and roses to our loved ones.

Calendar: 23. April "Sant Jordi" (Menorcan Page)

This Blog

The project Blog contains everything related to the Comenius project “Let’s Travel!”: summary, objectives, activities, mobilities, project meetings, results, evaluation… It is a visual and dynamic online platform which illustrates and disseminates the project development through regular updating: writings, introductions, descriptions of places, pictures and videos on Tourism as a topic. All outcomes on the Blog are the results of students’ and teachers’ common team work at the seven partner schools.

The Garden in Portugal

Although uncompleted, coordinators from the seven partner schools decided to maintain the Garden in Portugal as one of the most emotive outcomes of our project. Seeds of plants from the local flora in each country were sent to the school in Portugal. Students of Tourism and Gardening from Ferreira do Zêzêre collected and let them germinate. They created a greenhouse, which was unfortunately seriously damaged by a destructive tornado at the beginning of 2011. A big part of the garden got lost.

Evaluation Questionnaires and Power Point Presentation

Three model questionnaires for mobilities were made, separately for guests (teachers and students) and hosts (students). Teachers and students who took part in mobility filled these questionnaires after each meeting and conclusions were compiled by Polish teachers to make our work better and more efficient. The most important conclusions from questionnaires were summed in the Power Point presentation which was presented during the last mobility in Spain, were all coordinators from partner schools were present.

7 Different Kinds of Tourism in 7 Different Countries

The seven partner schools of the Project “Let’s Travel!” did of Tourism a topic to investigate and analyse. They found out the characteristics, the means of transport, the baggage, the accommodation, the duration and the money required for seven different kinds of tourism and tourists in the seven partnership countries. They produced a considerable quantity of documents with information and pictures on activities related to cultural, historical, religious, natural, health, sport and educational tourism.
