Tuesday 17th Morning - The final presentations of the Comenius projects by the partner schools

Students all arrive at the school at 7:45 am, with some students having taken two buses and a walk to get here. I think they may be starting to appreciate all of those 'parent taxis' we have back home. Our students were full of excitement from their first evening with their host families - just look at Tom's reaction!

We were welcomed into the school hall where we got introduced to the Head teacher and the Deputy Head teachers. all students were given a fantastic brochure which told them about the historical places in Hungary and the sites that they were going to see on their stay.

The projects got off to a fantastic start with a great play by the German students about meeting friends from Hungary, France and England and all of the problems encountered by trying to make friends across the borders of Europe. Despite their initial problems the students learnt to get on with each other and forge relationships just like our students have done over the past 3 years.

The Hungarian students' project followed with a presentation of their past and how important it is to understand the past to develop a future. A future as a united European front.

Next up were our students from SJB who did us proud by introducing themselves and explaining what hey have learnt over the process of the project. Our students then presented their film project to the students from other countries, with Tom, Francis and George's performances receiving many laughs and claps! The filming presentation explained to the partner schools what Britain was like in the 1980s, the present day and what we think it may be like in the future.
