Visiting local authorities during our first transnational meeting

Inowrocław  ['inɔˈvrɔt͡swaf] in Poland was our first visit in this strategic partnership project.



The history of the town told from local authority 












However, before we went to this meeting we got the opportunity to get to know each other as well as the environment a little.  


We went to Toruń, a town nearby the city we stayed in.

And there we visited Copernicus House.

Some bad news but also some good news

I feel happy despite the bad news about England. They could not manage the project due to some staff changes. So from eight countries we are now seven.



Back to the good news.  I will get company with me on the first rec. trip to Poland by our school lunch responsible Karin Elias. We will have a bulletin board, except for in the stairs just after the entrance, across all our clocks showing time in different parts of the world, also in the lunchroom.  At our school we have three lunch ladies.

My experience when I went to school was that these were sour and harsh. At our school, SIS, they are always in a good mood and makes so much extra for the specific moment to be a nice lunch for us
all.

One can, in a sense to say that the lunch and the staff around the lunch is the heart of the school business. They see all the children and all children know who they are. At our school, the children also has a fruit every morning. It is organically grown and tastes wonderful.

This picture is from our healthy week project in September run by our dean of student Barbro Ahl who also appear on the picture. The others are Karin, Wendy and Monica.

Today I got a question from a teacher in France what flower as a symbol our country have. But we have many? One for each "Landskap" so I told her the flower for Uppland since SIS is placed in Uppland. That flower is
