Topscent final party

End of the project

On May 6th the Estonian Comenius group gathered once more to look back at the two years of the project. We had invited our accountant Mare Kukk, who had carefully kept an eye of our finances, the head of Kadrina municipality Aivar Lankei and Enn Mälgand from the local newspaper "Kodukant". Some teachers and the headmaster of the school Arvo Pani were also present.

Each mobility group recollected their visit, showing photos or videos, singing, teaching the language, playing games etc. All the students had also made a poster, depicting the most valuable memories connected with the project. Everybody agreed that we had become a real Comenius family and the experiences gained were educative.

Polish Day

On the Polish Day we had some posters about Poland on the wall. There were also some pictures taken on the trip by students and an exposition in the library.

Portuguese Day

Our school celebrated Portugal's day a little bit differently as we are used to. This time we gathered into small groups and made many interesting presentations to classes from 3 to 11. The presentations were made in each class separately. We spoke about Portugal and made a quiz afterwards. The winners of the quiz received awards from the Portuguese embassy.

Hopefully, lots of good things about Portugal will stay in our memories.

One of the lessons about Portugal was based on a presentation like this

On Saturday evening we had a Maturity ball, which marks 100 days to the maturity exams. It started at 7 o'clock but we had a whole day with our families before that.

Me and Siret lived in Natalia Szcymanska's place. The family was really nice. As we could see, the maturity ball is very important to the Polish students. At first we spent a good time with our host's father at a shopping centre and after that we went to the hairdresser's with our host's mother. Before we went to the hairdresser's, we took some pictures from the internet to show them to the hairdresser, because she couldn't speak English. When we got there, we showed our pictures and the hairdresser did a really beautiful hairdo. Body language helped us a lot. Then we headed back home. Then we had to get dressed and a photographer came to our place. We had so much fun during the photoshoot.

Then it was time to go to the party. The Maturity ball started with a Polonese. It was a beautiful dance where all the schoolleavers were dancing this dance, the same steps but different combinations. It lasted for about 45 minutes. After the performance food was brougt to the tables. Then, half an hour later everyone started dancing. The ball lasted till 5 o'clock and the dancefloor was always full of dancers. It was an unforgettable night for all of us!

Thursday, Jan 13th

On Thursday we headed to Katowice about in 9 am. First we viseted old industrial part of town which was about 100-years old. It was very beautiful – the building were made of brown bricks and the window edges were vivid red. We had some time to walk there and take some pictures and then we went to the administrative center of Katowice in Silesia Voivodship. We first had one small meal and we got some little presents. Then we listened two man who talked about the histort of the building and about Silesia and Katowice in general. After taht we went to silver mining museum where we introduced how they used to mine silver, with what technic. We had a trip in the underground mining caves and we had a chance to sail with a boat. The waterway was very narrow so it was kind of creepy. The boat also swayed a lot. After the those trips we went to have a dinner. We actually had two dinners because our sleighride with horses was canceled due to the lack of snow. So we had some simple meal and then we went to eat some barbeque. The day was very exciting and educating. We had a lot of fun.

Friday, Jan 14th

On Friday we had to be in school at 8 o’clock and Portuguese students made their presentation, because they weren't there when the others presented theirs. So we waited about an hour and a half before they started presenting. After that we went to Cracow. When we arrived to Cracow we went to the castle called Wawel. It was a really beautiful castle. We also visited St.Mary's Basilica.
After St.Mary's Basilica we went to eat in restaurant, we ate traditional Polish soup and pork with potatoes. After the dinner we had about 3 hours of free time, everybody went to the Main Market Square, when we split up with others, everybody went their own way. We went back to Dabrowa Gornicza. Then we had dinner with our families and that was the end of our very interesting and enjoyable day :)

Wednesday, Jan 12th

That day started at 9 o'clock. We went to Auschwitz and Birkenau. Firstly we had a tour at Auschwitz the first. The guide introduced us how people had to live there. We saw many horrible pictures, a lot of things which were collected from people who were sent there. We can now imagine how they had to suffer. But still next to the Birkenau camp it looked much nicer. We could also see the only remained gas oven chamber. Luckily we had a really great guide who made that day very interesting for all of us. After 5 hours tour we had a lunch at the local restaurant and 6 o'clock we were back at Dabrowa Gornizsa and could go home to our host families.

Tuesday, 11.01.2011
Our day started at 8 o’clock. This day was ment for presentations, which every country had to do to give a little overview about their carnivals and festivals. Presenations started later due to computer problems, but everyone managed nicely. The first country was Estonia, then Italy and Turkey. Unfortunately, Portugese students hadn’t arrived yet. It was good to listen to other countries traditions. When performances were over, Polish students had prepared for us a little show. Some students sang a few songs and also danced. It was very nicely organised entertaining performance.
After lunch we went to the city municipality. The mayor couldn’t come there, but he found a very nice women to introduce us the whole building. When the excursion in the building was over, we had some free time. Most of the project students went to the local shopping centre.
At 5 pm we started gathering at Nemo’s. This was a really good place to spend time. There were billiards and we could even play bowling. After eating there, we had a bowling competition – Estonian team won. We were also given diplomas, like it has been in every country.
This day was very interesting and full of activities, which we all really enjoyed.
