The 2nd Comenius mobility



















Dear all,

I would like to inform you about the second Comenius mobility within the Europen project 2009-2011. It took place in Kuopio, Finland, at Klasikka High School. The people who participated were:

Teachers: Mihai Vitcu, Alina Stoleriu, Oltea Savin
Students: Loredana Cristinaru, Adi Sergiu Loghin, Cristina Bivol, Nicu Agapi, Monica Zimbru

It was an enlightening encounter. We discussed our previous activities and set up the ones to be done in the near future. Also, we took a glimpse of Finnish people, their lifestyles, their language, their food and most importantly, their educational system, which is flawless, by the way.

Klassikka high school impressed us all very much. Almost everybody in Finland speaks English, their school is very clean, the staff very well organized. The Finnish school system is brilliant, that's my opinion. I was astonished by the students' good behaviour, politeness and sensitivity.
Plus, our Finnish hosts offered us the possibility to have sauna. We all tried it, first students (female, then male), then teachers (female, then male). So it was all very well planned and organized.

You should also know that two of our students had to participate in the poetry slam and read out loud the poems they had written back home. The winners were the Spanish students but our students were praized by the other teachers and students as well. The winning poems were measured by the intensity of the public's applause.

I'll be back with more info; Yours truly,


Alina S
