Comments about our visit to Istanbul

Dear Friends,
Hello !
The flights to Italy were safe and now I am back home
I have nice memories of Turkey, the beautiful landscapes, the
colours, the new delicius food tasted, the places visited.....but,
above all, I am sure you all agree, I have wonderful memories about the
Turkish Hospitality, of what Aylin, Lusy and all their colleague have
done and organized for us..
THANKS A LOT !!
...and thanks to all the Turkish students and their families, who
have been really involved in this project of friendship, for hosting
our students such in a nice way that they really thought about being
"home" :-)
Moreover, again, as everytime we all meet somowhere, I have nice
memories of YOU ALL, of the time spent together, of all the things
shared together... breathing the usual "air" of friedship among our
countries
:-)
Lucia

Coordinator's speech- Feb 21st 2010

Merhaba:

For me it’s a pleasure, once more, to visit your school.
This time I come as the coordinator of a new Comenius project. We come from very far and different countries: UK, Poland, Italy and The Basque Country.
Although our countries are so different, from time o time, they experience similar problems related to water: We can’t forget the terrible floods that Istanbul suffered at the beginning of this school year. Similar happened in England a few months ago, and, at the moment, awful rains are causing many problems in the south of Spain.

With our Comenius project we, the teachers who prepared it, wanted to make you, the students, aware of the responsibility all of us have in respecting and protecting the environment.

We, the human being, are the main reason of the global warming, and all of us have to learn to change our lifestyle in order to achieve sustainability.

Well, now, I’d like to thank all of the teachers and students that have made this visit possible. Especially to the British delegation, who, for different reasons couldn’t organize this visit in their school. And of course, to the Turkish school, who offered themselves to host this meeting in their school.

I’m sure that we are not only going to learn a lot during this week, but also have fun with your new friends.

Thank you very much.
