FRIDAY

First thing in in the morning, we got to the Adamstown’s school and it was “The
Orange Day” (suicide prevention day) and we got our faces painted in orange.
We gathered together in a classroom and everyone presented their works
which they had been preparing for the past week, then we went downstairs to
the “lunch area” where we had a lecture by a MP about food in the European
Union (how it is legalized in certain countries, how exports and imports are
controlled and the general differences between some countries) and in the
end we discussed about equality rights, policies and criminality. After that we
got upstairs where we had our food fair in which we tried typical foods of
several countries and overall it was a great experience to get to know better
the other countries´ culture and traditions.
Later we all got together with a drama teacher and, with her help, we
prepared our acting about the tales we had chosen and presented it to the
other students and teachers, who seemed to have enjoyed it. When we were
finished, by lunchtime, everyone went back to their homes and in the evening
we went to town to spend some time together and say our last goodbyes.
