June 2016 : FUNNY SPORTS MONTH - GIM2 Trzebinia POLAND


                                            FUNNY SPORTS - SPORTS FOR EVERYONE

Whether you're with friends or by yourself, there's always heaps of ways to get active and have fun!


Just one can be fun 


Being by yourself gives you time to practice stuff so you get better.  If you play a sport, why not practice some of the skills?  If you play handball, you can practise goal shooting or passing and catching against a brick wall. 

Other things you can do:
Hopscotch ,Make up a dance, Skateboarding, Hula hoop, Bike riding, Fly a kite, Juggling, Tennis against a wall, Rollerskating

With two there’s even more to do

It’s great fun to hang out with a friend – plus there’s even more activities you can do when there’s two of you. Together you could:
Jump rope, Play one-on-one basketball, Try badminton, with or without a net, Have a table tennis tournament, Make up a cheerleading song and dance



When there are a lot of you

         Lots of sports and games work best when there is a group of kids.   
This month  in GIM2 TRZEBINIA we promoted group sports and leisure activities. 
A group of ERASMUS + students  has reached  UP TO THE SKY
17 students accompanied by two PhE teachers  took part in one week long hiking camp to Polish Tatra mountain. They won with their fears  and made a great physical fitness progress. From day to day they climbed higher and higher peaks, the crossings lasted an average of 6 hours per day. Finally on the last day they were able to  climb one of the finest and most recognizable mountain in Poland- Giewont in just 2.5h !!!!!  Practice makes perfect!!!


        In line with the theme of the month of June, FUNNY SPORTS were popularized.
After tiring walking tours the students enjoyed the time in the aquaparks. Speeding down the slides, or benefitting from wellness they enjoyed shared moments in thermal baths which are popular in Podhale region 



      In June, on the occasion of Children's Day, annual traditions in GIM2 Trzebinia school playground took place - School Sports Day. Each class took part in the competition in four disciplines: football, volleyball, throws into the basket and relay. Great fun but also challenging sports. Victory for one of the third grade class but memorable shared moments of joy for the whole school community.

A trophy carries dust. Memories last forever. -Mary Lou Retton

 TRIP to Mont Saint michel - a world heritage site


The fabulous wonder of the Western world, an abbey perched between sea and sky was our destination.  In the gusty wind and  the swirling sand, stepping between maddy  quicksands we managed to cross an impressive  Mont S.Michel Bay.
Fortunately, thanks to accompany of  professional guides we arrived at the abbey before the high tide. Then after getting rid of the mud tightly covering our feet, we passed along Grand Rue to climbed to the high medieval walls and to admire as minute by minute the island gradually dipped into the sea waves. Finally after power up by a tasty French baguette in a charming, tiny cafes we toured the interior of the sanctuary built in honour of the Archangel Saint Michel. 
Thank you for unforgettable views and life time moments.

                    A DUTY OF REMEMBRANCE
Visit to normandy american cemetery and memorial in colville- omaha beach


                                                    ONE morning in June 1944 . . . .

What would our world be today without that historic D-DAY, when the Allied Forces debarked in Normandy to liberate France?
Being in Normandy you need to remember that it is the place where history was made. 
The Normandy Landings began at dawn on June 6th 1944. Thousands of soldiers took part in Operation Overlord, many of them were young people, not much older than our students, yet willing to lay down their lives in order to restore freedom to mainland Europe and overthrow Nazi totalitarianism.
  
Today, the memory of those soldiers is still alive - our freedom fighters, brothers-in-arms .
 To pay tribute to the fallen soldiers we visited Normandy American Cemetery where over 9 thousands soldiers were buried. 
Each delegation laid a wreath of flowers in the national colors .  Then deeply touched students watched videos and a multimedia exhibition in The Visitor Centre.



After full of emotions visit to the Colville Omaha beach came time to a more recreational part of the tour.

Sightseeing CAEN a duchy town founded by Wiliam the Conqueror - known as the 'TOWN of 100 Bell Towers' due to the number of bell towers and numerous religious congregations.
                                                               



friday 3rd JUNE

                      the grand finale of the French meeting



After working in multinational groups the students with lots of creativity and great work presented their ideas on Healthy European Meals Recipes. 





In the afternoon THE TEENCHEFS did their best in A&E team football tournament. 



In closing the visit the project coordinators were invited to a Cocktail Reception with the City's Mayor at the Town Hall.


Students spent the last moments together on the great fun, enjoying themselves at the farewell party.
This week full of engaging activities, spent in international project team company will stay in memory for life.

Thank you Mrs Mariana Navrotescu, the whole French team and the families  for warm hosting and experiences which will last in time and go on beyond learning . . .
