last time that we wrote in this blog ,
many importants events have
happened.
We have
tried to organized them in chronological order:

Global
Action Day 10.04.2015
Until
almost march we were organizing one international activity
called “Global Action Day” about the realization of six different workshops for the students of
Virrat´s Highschool with other EVS
( European Voluntary Service) whose came
from different European countries , in
this case: England, Lienchestestein,
Germany , Slovakia and us, both from Spain. The chosen day was
Friday 10th, May. Previously of this
day, We had 3 meetings in the Virrat’s highschool, were the students explained
us their points of view and suggestions
to improve our own ideas.
In each
one of this workshop , we had the chance
to show the students our culture and
customs , they chose three workshops
between the possible options.
Finally
everything happened as planned, and We are plenty satisfied with the results.
The
develop of this activity could be
possible with the collaboration of
the Virrat´s students and 4
Evs whose came from Villa Elba´s
youth center.For us was a pleasure to welcome everybody in our workplace.
