Congratulations to all !!!

Our project it is not just a simple ordinary eTwinning project! It is something more!

 

The human dimension of the eTwinning program is here! Last summer the founders of our project, Carol Barriuso, English teacher of Escola Rosa Oriol of  Lliçà d'Amunt of Spain and Despoina Kapsali, teacher of Nea Karya Primary School of Greece, met each other again in Greece!. The first face to face meeting took place in Barcelona, in Spain, when teachers of Greek school traveled there for the needs of a Comenius program. The meeting in Greece gave the opportunity to partners of Nea Karya Primary school and Spanish school to get know each other better in family level and to establish even more their bonds of friendship for more fruitful cooperation. Also provided an opportunity for teachers involved in eTwinning project to discuss about the project, to exchange ideas and plan further actions of it.
