SPANISH MEETING

Met in the main hall where three students played three hymns on different instruments from the three countries in the project (Finland, Poland and Spain).

Flamenco show by the students in years 3 and 5, where they taught us about the typical costumes, different dances, accessories, instruments etc. We also had time to practice a dance. After the show we listened to one of the most well known guitarists in Andalusia, Miguel Chamizo.

Lesson in Spanish omelette making. The team from each country learnt to cook Spanish omelettes and contributed to the typical Spanish food which was eaten at school with all the teachers. In this way the members from the different countries could experience the typical foods of our county; starters, main dishes, salads, desserts etc.

After the meal we began a tourist visit of the old part of Arcos de la Frontera, but the inclemency of the weather meant we could not fully complete it.

In the first hours we had a meeting where we exchanged the students’ homework from the different countries.

The visitors also saw a presentation with pictures and a summary of each and every one of the chapters of the book.
