Greek school – Activity A15 - collaboration with migrant organizations

We collaborated with the Institute of Educational Policy in Greece which is authorized to take care of the education and reception of the refugees who find an asylum to Greece and we arranged together a visit at the Department of Reception and Refugee Education (DIEP) of our region; that is located at Primary School of Nea Karvali. Students and teachers of Nea Karya Primary School visited the DIEP. The refugee children were delighted with pleasure. After the first acquaintance and after showing us their home country on the map and the way they managed to reach here, we exchanged gifts. The refugees gave us the drawings they had prepared for each one of us and we in turn offered them the school supplies we bought with the money we had collected with various charity events (Activity A16) as well as a collaborative drawing. Finally we all played together in trasnational teams and enjoyed the games that the teachers had prepared for us. We were given the chance to get to know the children who came as refugees in our country better, to learn their personal history and to realize that they have the same needs as we do ... love, affection, play ...
