Monday was a very intensive day. For the teachers it started with a meeting with our principal, Mrs Wiesława Burlińska

At 8.30 we moved to Collegium Copernicanum for an official welcome with our principal, school vocal group

and Mr Miha Andrič, our guest speaker from Slovenia, an international debate coach and adjudicator who gave a truly unforgettable, inspirational opening lecture on public speaking, debating and savoir-vivre

After the lecture we went back to our school, where the students worked in two groups.

Both groups learnt about the Musketeers of Words, a debate tournament planned as a culminating event of the exchange and project. The intro to MoW was led by Ms Monika Izbaner, who talked about debate assessment and role fulfillment.

The second group attended Mr Miha Andrič's workshop on argument building.

Afterwards, the students worked in 4 national and 1 international team. They prepared arguments for the MoW debates.

The day ended with a walk around Bydgoszcz
