At the first meeting all parters presented the cards characteristic for their countries, regions and schools to know better each others. During the visit we were working on the main study topic: CHALLANGES OF EMPLOYABILITY. Pupils elaborated the brochure about Strategies and Requirements for School Leavers to be Employed. Polish pupils presented the brochure about multinationals working in our region, their requirements, Corporate Credo and moral standards. As the final product each of the partners created a poster with motto, credo and beliefs characteristic for every school participated in the project. Our pupils had the opportunity to communicate in English and French. They visited Chalons en Champagne with famous Champagne Joseph Perrier cellar, Town Hall where they had a chance to meet the Mayoress of the Chalons. The main attraction was a tour of Paris by coach where our pupils admired the famous smile of Mona Lisa in Louvre Museum and had a picnic lunch near the Eiffle Tower and in the Versailles gardens. Polish pupils not only got to know French culture, customs and cuisine, but also exchanged the experiences and formed a lot of friendships among all of the partner school.
