During the project children and adults in each

school will have the opportunity to learn

about each country's history and culture.

 

To start the project Mr Longmore and

Miss McCormack attended a meeting

hosted in Izmir by the Turkish school.

 
         
 

Here are Mr Longmore and Miss McCormack talking to a class of Turkish children.

 
 
         
 
 

They listened carefully to instructions

before an art activity.

 
         
 
They were proud to show off their results!
 
 
         
 
 

During the visit they met lots of local

politicians and officials.

The title of the project is "Once Upon a Time."

We will be working together to tell well known national stories from each country.

 
 
         
 
 

They saw many interesting things on their trip.
