  3. For those who want to brush up their German:

    „Die Woche in Finnland war viel zu schnell um. Verantwortlich hierfür war vermutlich der ganze Spaß, den wir dort hatten. Obwohl unser Projekt ein wichtiger Teil und auch der Anlass der Reise war, gab es trotzdem genügend typisch finnische Aktivitäten, bei denen wir den Schnee richtig ausnutzen konnten. Und das Wetter macht es noch attraktiver zurück zu kommen, um alle, jetzt weißen Flächen in blau und grün als Wiesen und Seen zu begutachten. Letztendlich war es ein voller Erfolg – auch die Podiumsdiskussion hat am Ende sehr gut geklappt. Zurück bleiben unvergessliche Erinnerungen an diese Woche.“ (Leonie, K1)

Time to wrap up the project: a BIG thank you to all Erasmus+ teachers and students!

Dear friends, all the project visits have been carried out, summer holidays draw nearer and apart from final uploading & reporting the results, there isn't that much to do with the project. It's been an amazing two years in great company! I've had the privilege of co-coordinating Erasmus+ projects for several years, and I must say it's always a pleasure. Great company, international cooperation and unforgettable experiences for students and teachers alike! With these final pictures reminiscing past visits and some comments from the students, I'd like to wish you all a pleasant end for this academic year and the project. Be seeing you soon! Antti P.S. Comments: This was an wonderful project with many chances for our future life Thank you for all :-) It was a very nice time and I’m thankful to say that I was a member of this project. If I could be part of a project like that I would do it again at anytime. I wouldn't want to miss an

Scotland 25.11.-1.12.2018

Erasmus+ meeting in Scotland 25.11.-1.12.2018 On Sunday morning we started our journey from Vammala at 8 am. We took the train to Helsinki-Vantaa airport. The national railway company, VR, was doing some construction on the tracks, so we had to modify our tickets beforehand and book a coach on our way back to Vammala. Anyway, everything should have been okay and we didn’t have any problems with the first train. We had to change trains in Tampere and there we found out that VR had cancelled all our tickets to both directions. Luckily we got everything sorted out and we arrived early at the check-in. After the check-in, it was lunch time. Our departure was from terminal T2 and I remembered  a good restaurant there. The Nordic Kitchen offered us tasty reindeer pizzas, pastas and salads. From Helsinki we flew to London and ate again. I can just say that I had booked good tickets, a lot of time to eat, my favourite thing! Because we were in Heathrow we had to try

Estonia 3.-9.10.2018

Erasmus+ meeting in Estonia 3.-9.10.2018 On Wednesday 3rd we started our journey from Vammala to Tartu at 8 am, not too early though. We took a train, tram, ferry, taxi and bus to get to Tartto and of course there was plenty of waiting time in between the different vehicles so we finally arrived at 7 pm. Luckily we didn’t have any problems during our journey. We ate a buffet at the ferry and watched movies on the bus so the journey went pretty quickly. If you as me, eating is always a good way to spend time! In the evening students met the German, Italian and Scottish students and got familiar with their roommates at the hostel while us, the teachers, settled in our hotel rooms. Next day we had a great welcome concert at Lähte Ühisgymnasium. After the concert the students were divided to groups and the hard work for the project began. After a school lunch we took a bus to Tartu Town Hall Square and walked to the Estonian University of Life Sciences to visit an en
