Each country conducts a
volunteer day during December
2018. We agreed it would be
difficult to decided one common
date, so we decided a common
month instead.
The students that are going to
Italy will have to prepare some
ideas befor Italy. The TV shot will
be done in Italy. The duration is
30 seconds and it will be in
english.
THE DATE FOR
TRANSNATIONAL
PROJECT MEETING –
TURKEY
It was difficult to decide dates for
the Transnational Project
Meeting in Turkey. We decided to
make a common calendar were
we can get an overview of the
dates where it is possible for all
schools to attend.
DATE FOR EPALE
Each conuntry creates a EPALE-
site, where we make a
presentation about WAST and
what we have done in this
project. Every country uploads
publications, photos,
dissiminations about the project.
We are also supposed to have a
parent seminar about Inclusion.
The EPALE will be done in May
2019.
