Latvian students discuss migration

Last week Latvian students were watching stories about Ali and Julianne. After watching the videos students raised some serious questions and thoughts about what it is like to be away from family and home. Following was the discussion. We found out that if we would have to move to a different country majority would move to America. We talked about history when Latvians also had to seek refuge and the reasons why it happened. Students found the main reason why it is necessary for children like Ali and Julianne to flee their homes. We compared our likes, dislikes and fears with refuge children and concluded that we are very similar and we have to get to know each other better. At the end of the discussion the students wrote acronym poems which reflected the compassion and understanding towards refugees.

Contest in Latvian school - “Get to know Europe”

On Monday, the 22nd of January, Tirza primary school 7th grade organized a contest “Get to know Europe”.

Students from 4th to 9th grade participated in the contest. During the competition, all groups had to visit six workshops where they solved a crossword puzzle, tried to recognize different European country national foods and languages and took a kahoot.it quiz on different European buildings. Our Portugese volunteer Nuno had made a special quiz about Portugal.

At the end of the contest, we – the 7^th grade, counted the points and ate some very tasty candy. Our students really liked the competition and they would like to participate in a similar activity. This competition was a part of the project “Don’t forget what really matters!”
