10 April 2010

In cooperation with the Moro Foundation, which will support the project financially, we plan a student exchange programme with the Costeas – Geitona School in Athens for our Grade 8 students this academic year, which can hopefully be extended to other IB partner schools in the future.

During April and May 2010 we will organise a visit for grade 8 students to Athens, with a similar visit to Ljubljana by their age peers from Greece.

The proposed dates are as follows:
22 April to 25 April 2010 Greek students come to Ljubljana &
6 May to 9 May 2010 Danila Kumar students visit Athens.

The Moro Foundation will finance the activities (excursions & sightseeing, some meals and events) and other expenses (organisation and expenses for teachers on duty); students’ families will be required to pay for the plane tickets and host a visiting student.

Both schools aim to arrange intercultural activities on the Friday, excursions or sightseeing and social events on other days. We are sure that this is a fantastic opportunity for our students to learn about another school and country; and gain experience of a different culture.
