- In international groups students share the information on traditions and folktales in their area they have prepared beforehand.
- Students and teachers find out about how traditions and folklore have shaped Cornish culture and heritage through learning activities like workshops, seminars, visits to local museums, sights and monuments (stone circles, St. Michael's Mount), etc. (either in school or in the area.)
- At the end of the week, each internationally mixed group creates and performs their own story which includes elements of the different European cultures.
At the end of the meeting, students will have:
- become aware of similarities and differences between European countries in the area of traditions and folktales
- practiced and developed their English language proficiency including vocabulary concerning the meeting's topic
- learned about Cornish / English customs and traditions
- improved their competences of creativity, critical thinking and communication.
