Nomi's 1st mobility
erasmus+
During this LTTA our hearts beat with the charanguas and macletà, our eyes marveled at the artistic talent of fallas bands, our bodies joined the global joy and our minds bonded with the creativity of our international partners. Everyday we explored the points of interests of Valencia medieval town among which la Llotja, the Art and Science Center, the Opera House and as the Fallas Museum. ”Once at school, our students experienced inclusive activities while we enjoyed recording the first NoMI radio programme as well as the European anthem, jobshadowing and hosting aa workshop about our cross-cultural newscast. That contributed to building trust and team spirit but also increasing self-confidence in order to share more skills which benefit all schools. Besides, we loved discovering our partners' school systems and contemplating innovative approaches put forward in a fictitious European parliamentary debate at Aldaia's Town Hall. What a pride to see our studets exchange and communicate respectfully. Through that activity our students realized their decision-making power as young European citizens in their schools and later when they cast their ballots. Furthermore I've really appreciated that venue which reminded us of the fact that our actions fully belong to the international policies of our host town. Finally we'd like to thank you all our partners and more particularly Aldaia's staff for organizing this tremendous schedule and moving my heart to tears with the closing ceremony, the Albuferra cruise at the sunset and the food festival prepared by our students and their host families. Thanks to you, our students became more autonomous, opened up, made friends and developed both social and academic skills. Indeed they used modern languages to interact and link up with other "islanders" all around the world.
