1. My Comenius experience Szombathely November 2010

2. In November 2010, when Comenius meetings started, truly Rosalba and me (hello, I’m Barbara) were a bit worried about our journey to Hungary but even very happy and excited to begin this new experience. When we and our pupils arrived,unfortunately late, we found at the station Anita and Gerti. They were very kind and took us to the school. At school there was a great show; folk dances, hungarian music, very tasty food.

3. At school we met other hungarian teachers and their headmistress Kinga, catalan friends Maria Josè, Laura and Mari and polish friend “Giorgio”

4. The next morning we went to school.We visited classrooms, library, sport hall where the boys played football, a real match Hungary-Italy. Rosalba, me and all pupils amused ourselves during art lesson: we snipped and coloured traditional St.Martin goose

5. Szombathely, ancient Savaria, was birthplace town of St.Martin; we visited St.Martin church and many places devoted to him and like pilgrims we followed “Via Sancti Martini”.

6. We went to Vamoscsalad and visited the parish;we played with different toys regarding St. Martin. We drank hot spice wine and ate some traditional cookie, sign of friendship because they have to be divided by 2 people.

8. Another appealing place of the Abbey was the great wine cellar we visited in late afternoon. All of us Comenius partners really developed a taste and enjoyed delicious wines made by monks.

11. Hungarian meeting was a great experience indeed. We had fun, learned a lot about history, hungarian traditions, food, way of life. We started this adventure as strangers but when we went away we left friends. Of course even polish stay was wonderful and I hope we could share friendship and well being all together very soon in Barcelona. Kisses, Barbara.
