Project meeting in Turkey

27. May - 1. June we participated in a project meeting in Turkey, in the city of Yenifoca. Teachers Airi Metsaäär, Meeli Jänes as well as a 9th grade student Oliver Männik attended at the meeting. At the meeting we discussed what we had already done and what are the tasks we should fulfill at the project meeting in Estonia. We participated in an international eco-related conference in the city of Foca, where a representative of each country introduced their country's educational system and enviromental actions. At the conference Turkish enviromental scientists made a presentation of global issues. We got a lot of interesting ideas. The presentation about our school was made by the teacher Airi Metsaäär. During our visit in Turkey, we also went on some intresting tours.
The reception was warm, friendly and caring. The people there were very helpful.
