European Pupil Jury
VIDEOCONFERENCE European Pupil Jury
What did we do on Europe Day? Visser ‘t Hooft Lyceum from Leiden, the Netherlands VHL Website and VHL Internationale Leeromgeving, is one of the Elos Comenius III Network Schools for European Citizenship. We organised a videoconference in which European pupils acted as jury for a contest. Pupils from Bulgaria website Bulgarian school, Italy: Liceo Linguistico Internazionale “Grazia Deledda”, Turkey: TED Ankara College Foundation Schools and Romania: Grup Scolar Industrial Constructii De Masini Sibiu joined our pupils and presented themselves in English!
We listened to a song and we saw beautiful contributions made by talented pupils from all over Europe. We thank our partners for participating and joining us in discovering the use of videoconference through use of the net. We appreciated:
- your willingness and enthusiasm to join us and give us your valuable time
- your braveness in trying something new, a very important quality in a teacher
- your patience when things were more difficult then they seemed when we started
- your allowing us to learn together, very appropriate in this shared celebration of Europe: 50 Years
Together: Congratulations on the Birthday of Europe!
- to see your faces, to hear your voices (well, most of them;), to know that we had Turkish, Italian, Romanian and Bulgarian pupils LIVE in our Dutch classroom, our pupils thought it was very interesting to be a witness to this videoconference and to have met you!
Dear Friends from Europe,
My name is Grace Mulei from Kenya. I am esteemed to be a part of Made in Europe, and team player of Eurropean Citizenship.
The intercultural dialog that promotes peace and tolerance for the global citizen is a very enthusiastic concept, that inspires towards good citizenship.
I hope our kids will produce images and creative work that will promote good futurists.
It is the best way to promote peace of the world.
I look forward to progressive involvement.
Grace.
