<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Your comments: <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**Natalija, Croatian teacher** : "Our Comenius partners from Hungary and Romania participated in the Croatian language class on 22nd of October, 2013. My plan was to engage the students in the interpretation of Petrarca's poems and pair work. At the beginning of the lesson one student greeted our guests in English and told them what we were planning to do during the lesson. The synthesis of the class was the most interesting part as the students were writing love sonnets and translated them into English and then read them to the class. I can say that the lesson was successful, educational and interesting, and this is what our guests from Romania and Hungary said as well."

A lot of various things: beauty, nature, silence, Ginkgo Biloba, positive energy, hidden talents, joy, efficiency, good English speakers, friends and…many other amazing things! <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> When we arrived in the beautiful resort with thermal waters – Daruvar – on 21st october 2013, it was a nice autumn day, with copper – colored leaves just like the old ornament tree ginkgo biloba – croats pride. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> The first evening at school was excited: we met then our hosts and the other partners from Great Britain, Germany, Hungary, Slovakia. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The Croatian team greeted us with a touching artistic performance (music and dance). We all appreciated those moments, specially prepared for us. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Next day, we have been involved in various activities: participation in different lessons (Croatian Language, Biology, Chemistry, Sports, History of tourism, French), visit of the school, sightseeing of Daruvar and Zagreb, Talent Show, coordinators meeting, visit to the wine cellar, 85th school anniversary, Day together for Europe. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> The entire program organized by Svjetlana team surpassed our expactations! <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Lessons?//** Interesting, with involved teachers, alternating traditional and modern. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//The tour of Daruvar?//** A good opportunity to discover the sights of this city. The most attractive “target” of the city? The old Ginkgo Biloba, of course – the second oldest tree in Europe. I have been also impressed by Julijev Park and the thermal fountain – what a good hot tea we made and drank there! <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//The activity to the wine cellar?//** Novel, really interesting and…”delicious”! Thank you Svjetlana! <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//The trip to Zagreb?//** A great choice and a very good chance to discover the Croatian capital and their civilization; we admired there The Cathedral in the city center, the parks, The Parliament, The Gouvernment, St. Mark Cathedral, Nikola Subic Zrinski Square and Ban Jelacic Square. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> The two tours of the towns (Daruvar and Zagreb) surprised me very much because they were guided by Croatian students, very well informed, who presented us all details of the most important landmarks. **//<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">85th School Anniversary? //**<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Well done! An artistic show, held of the Theater of Daruvar, where the Croatian students acted in plays, sang and danced. We appreciated their effort! <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Coordinators meeting?//** Fruitful, useful and nice. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//Talent Show and Day together for Europe?//** Wonderful performers from each team involved in the project; everybody prepared a short artistic moment, specific for their country. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> I was amazed to see culinary demonstrations of the Croatian students! <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> All I lived in Croatia, in Daruvar, will remain always in my soul and in my mind and I”ll remember every time those wonderful moments! <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> **//For me – and for all of us, I think – the project meeting in Daruvar was an useful and memorable experience!//** <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Lăcrămioara Dumitrache, Romanian Language Teacher, Elementary School “Elena Văcărescu”, Buchares <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 14pt;">t
