The 11th Gymnasium of Larissa welcomed teachers and students coming from 6 European countries visiting from 5-5-2014 to 9-5-2014. The countries that visited us are Bulgaria, Finland, Poland, Romania, Spain and Turkey. We hosted 43 students and 20 educators from the countries above.
Some videos of the activities in Larissa, Greece appear below:
Comenvision
The music performance (Comenvision) was held in the Amphitheatre of the Municipal Water Company in Larissa. Water Company officials, teachers and students from all participant countries, all the students and teachers of the 11th Gymnasium and many parents participated in the event.
Each country presented its own song:
Finland -> Cup song
Poland -> Valerie
Spain -> Happy
Romania -> Insieme
Bulgaria -> Calling All The Monsters at Halloween
Turkey -> Domino
Greece -> Fragosiriani - Hassapiko dance
The whole presentation was very successful and everybody enjoyed and apllauded the students' presentation.
At the end of the music performances each country was given a cup to remember being part of the Comenvision in Greece.
Greek Traditions and festivals
During the Comenius week in Larissa the teachers and the students enjoyed the Greek hospitality.
The first day at school the Greek teachers helped the students learn how to dance Greek traditional dances.
At the Water Company the greek students danced traditional dances with the participation of all the students and teachers. They also tasted Greek traditional food which was made by the good will of the Greek families. They also experienced Greek music and dance at a Greek tavern.
Next day they visited st. Nicolas church and the monasteries at Meteora and they got in touch with our religions tradition and whorship.
A team of Greek students presented an ancient greek comedy (by Aristofnis) in one of the two ancient theatres of our city. So everybody experienced a performance they had never seen before.
The whole week gave them the chance to see things totally different for their culture but also interesting that will help them have a memorable time during their visit here.
Evaluation: Larissa – students
After visiting Larissa the Polish team counted the
students answers to the questionnaire. Although the students were
different the results are similar. The students think more or less in the same way. What’s interesting, they have added more comments and it’is good especially that
in this way they have opportunity to say whatever they like.
Evaluation questionnaire
This is the questionaire for the students, that the Polish team gave us. We give it to our students after each mobility and we collect their answers. The Polish team counts the results and gives the evaluation to all the partners.
