Participants
visited archaeological sites, such as Nicopolis and the Necromanteion, gaining
a deeper understanding of Greek civilization and its cultural heritage. These
visits helped them connect with the local history and appreciate the lasting
impact of ancient Greece.
In addition
to the excursions, students took part in creative workshops. Through activities
like "Body Music" and learning about ancient Greek music, they
explored new ways of expression. They also participated in painting sessions
and planted an olive tree, symbolizing peace and sustainability.
One of the
most memorable moments was the "Jar of Memories" workshop, where
students put their feelings and reflections into a symbolic jar to keep the
memories of this experience alive. The final celebration, marked by the cutting
of a cake prepared by the students, symbolized the end of the program and the
strong bonds created.
A big thank
you goes to the international partners, whose dedication made this program a
success, and to all the participants for their enthusiasm and contributions.
The "Unity
in Diversity" project was much more than an educational project. It was a
journey of connection, understanding, and cultural appreciation that fostered
unity and respect for diversity. The memories and bonds formed during this
experience will continue to inspire everyone involved, as they look forward to
future opportunities to promote unity through diversity.
It was a wonderful experience for our children as they had the opportunity to make new friends coming from culturally diverse background and to be challenged by the differences as well as the similarities people share.
