Here is a video from our partnership school Gminne Centrum Edukacji, Gimnazjum w Wawrzeńczycach in Poland.





Here is a message from Renata, the international coordinator from Poland:

The students took part in a 3-day workshop called 'Euroweek - the school of Leaders'. During the course they stayed all 3 days with volunteers from all over the world: Latvia, Turkey, Denmark, Philippines, India, Columbia, Italy. During the workshop they took part in various activities, games and dramas which aimed to teach them cooperation/collaboration skills, problem solving, sharing responsibilities, reliability, team work. They also discussed some serious matters, learnt how to make autopresentation or make a speech in public. They had lots of fun, I'm sure you can see that in the pics. Al lthe time they had to speak English since the volunteers couldn't speak Polish, which was obviously very good for their language skills and balance of competence;-) Apart from that my students watched presentations about the volunteers' native countries, in English of course.
Really nice workshop which taught my students to be more motivated, creative, open, self-confident and tolerant too - crucial features for budding entrepreneurs;-)
