MOBILITY REPORT by Damià Fulton (participant student)
This
school's year has already reached its end. It has been a marvellous
year, and we have done two of the comenius mobilities: Germany and
Spain.
On
Saturday 11th of May, comenius students from Germany, France and
England came to Premià. They arrived separately in different turns,
throughout the day. Everybody was very excited about it. The first
day, students met their partners and their families. The weekend was
free for us to plan things, so the incoming students were able to
adjust themselves and didn't have to worry about having to go to
school.
The
next day, we met up to have dinner at the beach. It was a nice sunny
day, and some got a nice lobster red tan. After lunch, we went to
visit Barcelona, especially the Ramblas and the Maremagnum.
On
Monday, our headmaster, Berant Ancochea, gave all the foreign
students and their teachers a nice welcoming speech, after which we
were all given our schedules for the week. Then, all the Spanish
students but 8 went to their normal classes. The rest of us had a
very interesting activity on food. Valerià Paül, an expert on food
organization, gave us an explanation of nowadays food crisis and
alternative methods to fight this. Then, we visited a farm where food
is sold directly to the consumer, as natural as possible. We came
back to the school and we did the last activity of the day. By groups
of 4, we would analise the webpage of some company or association
related to food, and later on give a brief exposition about it.
Tuesday was the day of
the solar boxes. Each class had made a room able to light up without
electricity. We used a carboard box, painted it white inside, made a
hole in it, we put a water bottle in the hole and a peep hole on the
side. We covered the bottle over and when we uncovered it... Voilà!
The cardboard box was full of light. It was a great success. We even
prepared one to write in, but it was a bit too small for most people,
so there weren't so many that went in. After that, the students went
to a desalination plant in El Prat de Llobregat.
On
Wednesday, we started off by watching the comenius expositions of the
Spanish students. They were all very interesting, and quite a number
of them involved commercials or marketing. Then, all the exchange
students participated on a sailing activity, but none of the Spanish
students could. After those who still hadn't gone on any field trip
and the exchange students went to a waste treatment plant in Mataró.
Apparently, it was very smelly.
For
Thurdsday, a great activity was programmed to visit El Bosc Vertical,
an adventure park in Catalunya. However, because of rainy weather,
the activity had to be suspended. Instead, we visited the Barça
Museum. It was wonderful, very interesting. After that, we had the
possiblility to stay in Barcelona, and most of us did. We parted in
two groups: one that wanted to visit Plaça Catalunya and one that
went to Gothic quarter. The one that went to the centre were quite
lucky, because later on they saw a live bicycle trick show in Arc de
Tiomf and we got free Red Bulls! It was the last day, so we all had
dinner together with the teachers in the Rigoletto, a nice pizzeria
in Premià. After dinner, we saw photographs of the whole exchange
programme here. We all got a diploma with our name on it, stating
that we had participated in the Premià Comenius Mobility. We all
said goodbye to everybody and wished each other luck.
Friday
was the last day with our partners. We accompanied them to the train
station and said farewell to them. It was sad to see them leave so
soon, but they had to go back to their countries and live on with
their lives.
It
has been a very good and profitable exchange, most of us have learnt
a lot and have had lots of fun in the meantime. The next mobility is
England, and hopefully it will be just as much fun.
