A TRIP THROUGH COMENIUS
by Fernando Javier Cabello Nodal / Project Coordinator
THE WHOLE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS
FINLAND
Trip 1 |Vesilahti (Finland)
​
Our second project was designed for students in Secondary School, from 1st to 4th graders. Spain, Sweden, Turkey, Scotland, Finland and Germany were involved in this Comenius Project. We worked with different topics, such as Inventions and inventors, folk music, art, gastronomy, festivities...
Here below we are going to see some pictures about the trip and a video presentation of Carmona and our School.
Trip 2 |Solingen (Germany).
​
Solingen is called the "City of Blades", since it has long been renowned for the manufacturing of fine swords, knives, scissors and razors and it was the second city visited in this project. Three students followed us in this journey, where we also visited Cologne and its cathedral. Students stayed with German families and followed lessons during the school time.
Trip 3 |Linwood (Scotland)
​
Few kilometres away from Glasgow Linwood is located and there it is where our 3rd trip took place . No students followed us, but there are more visits awaiting in the list. Linwood is a small town in Renfrewshire, 14 miles (23 km) south-west of Glasgow.

Trip 6 |Särö (Sweden)
​
Our last trip took place in the beginning of May in Särö, a locality situated in Kungsbacka Municipality, with 3,165 inhabitants in 2010. It is located south of Gothenburg on the Särö peninsula, and is famous for its golf and tennis history. There our project ended with an exposition fair and with 6 students with us.
Definitively, it was a great experience for both, students and teachers
