As the project is funded by the EU and one of its expected result is more positive attitude to EU, we decided to mark Europe Day held on 9 May. In each school we will organise a EU Week, in which in different subjects and activities students will try to get to know better the countries of our project (its food, art, films, challenges it faces, how do they feel about the future, how do they feel about EU, ...)

At the end of the week students take part in a quiz that peers from other countries prepare for them.
