Ve středu 8. 1. se konala na půdě naší školy nanejvýš zajímavá akce. Dorazili k nám totiž studenti z naší spřátelené školy Ranum Efterskole College, a to až z Dánska. Dostali jsme (jakožto 7.A) jedinečnou příležitost se se studenty seznámit, popovídat si a u toho je ve skupinkách provést naší historickou budovou školy. Podívali jsme se do hvězdárny, seznámili je s našimi školními hady Caesarem a Kleopatrou, provedli je po třídách, navštívili i tělocvičnu spolu s aulou. Dokonce měli tu možnost prohlédnout si Prahu z výšky, konkrétně z unikátního výhledu na střeše školy. Prohlídka byla krátká ale intenzivní. I za tu malou chvilku jsme se toho ohromně dozvěděli a věřím, že si i oni odvezli zpátky domů zajímavé zážitky, poznatky a možná i kontakt na nově nabyté kamarády.

V další hodině se setkali studenti, pocházející ze zemí z celého světa a studující na Ranum Efterskole College, se skupinou 4.A AJ2, se kterou si již v prosinci dopisovali. Pod vedením Katky Matulové soutěžili studenti z dánské školy spolu s jedním či dvěma kvartány nebo kvartánkami v kahootu o českých reáliích a pak si vyměnili poznatky týkající se systémů vzdělávání v různých zemích, kde studovali.

Dlužno dodat, že přijelo padesát tři studentů a studentek a sedm učitelů včetně pana ředitele, který nám nabídl možnost načerpání zkušeností ze skandinávského školství a reciproční návštěvy. Někteří s dánskou návštěvou strávili ještě navíc večer ve Státní opeře na úchvatném baletu Romeo a Julie, jiní se sešli s novými přáteli znovu ve čtvrtek odpoledne.

A jaké byly reakce studentek a studentů z Ranum na Prahu a naši školu?

It was very fun and interesting going to Prag and meeting new people at the school and seeing what it is like at their school. I meet a student named Lojza and we became friend and I we talked about my trip to Prag. Hope I will meet him again someday.

During our trip to Prague we experienced many different things, one of the most memorable of them was our visit to our friendship school. Early on during our Prag lessons we got assigned to a student from our friendship school to write a letter to whom we also received a letter from later so there was some anticipation of this visit where we would meet the students we’d written to. The visit itself was extremely nice, everyone there was so kind to us and greeted us with open arms and made us feel welcomed the entire visit. They had planned a lot of fun activities for the day. We started with a tour by the students of the school where we saw all their classrooms and learned a lot about their everyday life, they even had snakes just like us! Then we finally got to meet the person we had been writing to, which went amazing! I noticed a lot of the students from our school had a good connection with their students and even ended up sharing their Snapchats and meeting up to go around in the city after the visit! During our conversations with them we learned a lot about each other’s culture and school life where we both found differences and things we had in common. Then we finished with a Kahoot that the teachers of the school had made for us, where with the help of our pen pals we had to answer questions about Prague! It was both fun and educational, there were a lot of interesting things about their history and city that we didn’t know that we got the chance to learn about from the students of the school. Then the visit had come to an end. It was both a memorable visit and despite never having been there before I could already feel the connection between our two schools, and they should know that they are more than welcome to come visit us here in Ranum.

Visiting Prague was a great cultural experience. Everything in this city was amazing and beautiful. Especially the old part of the city. I also really appreciate the museum of Prague. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. Exchanging about our respective cultures was very interesting. The opera was beautiful and the actors did an amazing job at dancing Rome With all its rocks and dead animals. Meeting our friendship school was also a highlight of our so and Juliet. Overall visiting Prague was a great experience that I will cherish.

Our visit to the school in Prague was a great experience, it was fun to meet another student from Prague, and even though we were all the same age, we had a lot of differences we could share among each other. The school system was also totally different to what I'm used to, but that was also the fun part to see in person. Overall it was a great experience and something I definitely will remember in the future.
