Visit to Romania
Grundtvig Project
2 – 7 November 2011
This was the first meeting of all the partners. Unfortunately Cyprus could not make it and Poland arrived late.
The first day was opened by Mariana the lead co-ordinator. She introduced everyone to the audience.
Each country introduced their organisation by showing a powerpoint and in the afternoon they gave presentations about successful projects.
Day two was interesting. A visit to a charity followed by a debate with young people in the language school. Although the meeting started slowly it finished very productively. Later that afternoon the co-ordinators met and discussed future meetings and what still had to be produced.
We all had a festive meal on the first evening. It was a successful dinner, where all participants got to know each other and started to make friends, using the piano and guitar. This was helped by some very good wine thanks to our Slovenian partners!!
On Saturday, we met the Polish team, who arrived late, because of problems at Warsaw airport.
Saturday was a culture day and I really enjoyed it. We have a typical lunch with all partners before going back to the hotel. Later Billy and I spent a very enjoyable evening with our new friends from Italy and Sweden.
The group mixed very well and I think the project will have some very good outcomes.
As we mentioned in the meeting the balance between work and culture was in our opinion excellent. We would like to thank the Romanian team for a wonderful organised event.
It has been so nice meeting you again.
