Project information

Some information about the Culture-and-tradition project. We started this project with a preparationvisit in January 2007 (see for details Preparation visit). The project's name is Culture and Tradition. We want to learn from each other's culture and tradition, in order to achief mutual understanding, but also to learn as communities, that the world is bigger than our the place you life in. This can be achieved by being able to see, talk and question each other as pupils, teachers and other involved people within our communities. Our motto is: 'Let's make a project we never forget'.
