ErasmNews · 2019. 6. 24. · Adam Małysz -ski champion Kamil Stoch -ski champion Poland’s team: Wolny, Kubacki, Żyła, Stoch. On Friday 19 March our school went to the theater.

Lately we have ta-

ken part in an Erasmus

Plus assembly. Our

school mates visited

a small town Merignac

near Bordeaux in Fran-

ce. I was delighted to li-

sten their stories and

how warmly they were

hosted by the French fa-

milies. The biggest dunes

in Europe (Dune du Py-

la) impressed them the

most! It was even more

interesting to us because

in June me and other

three students from my

school will set off to Ro-

me.

This year is espe-

cially important for us

Poles. We are celebrating

the 100th anniversary of

Poland’s gaining inde-

pendence. We were sin-

ging patriotic songs and

the Polish Anthem too,

we danced folk dances,

recited poems and all of

these has really moved

us. Our mother land is

our heritage.

In Fe-

bruary there was a fan-

cy dress party. With

pleasure we were mo-

ving our bodies while

rhythms of the DJ’s

hits. Some of the stu-

dents decided to wear

a disguise. We spotted

two teddy bears swin-

ging in the crowd.

As I mentioned

before there are only

some of the updates!

I encourage everyone

The Telethon is an

event that is used to

raise money to cure ge-

netic diseases.

Friday afternoon, the

14th of December, the

Bourran's Primary

School (17 classrooms,

440 students) did

a sportive activity for

the Telethon in Jard's

stadium.

Let's go, we run dur-

ing 20 minutes. After,

an afternoon snack

was offered to stu-

dents.

Each child had a spon-

sor who gives 1 euro

per lap.

The school has collect-

ed 1800 euros! It was

delicious and friendly!

Interview with Clotilde.

1. Is not the race too

hard?

No, I did 4 laps.

2. Is it very important for

you the Telethon?

Yes

3. Why?

An example: There are children of the

moon who can not see the sun, they can

not go out and go to school.

With money doctors can hope to cure them.

Mr Theodoros Papaioannou

is a writer. He came to our

school and he presented his bo-

ok a few days ago. The title of

his book is “Silouani”. But how

did he write this book? He had

a student, her name was Siloua-

ni. Silouani gave him a letter on

her last day at primary school.

He read the letter many times

and he decided to write a book

to answer children’s questions.

The book was published in

2017. It has 228 pages and it is

for children 9 years old, and

older. In the book, there are two

children: Kostis and Diamantia.

The children do not want to go

to the mountain for holidays.

They think it is something bo-

ring. But there they meet Si-

louani who lives there. She

shows them the beautiful mo-

untain and the village and they

change their mind. They have

a wonderful adventure together.

The book is about happiness,

friendship and exploration.

Mr Papaioannou wrote 12

books for children and for ad-

ults. “Silouani” is his favourite

book.

dicines avoid these women’s

children to be infected with

AIDS.

In May 2108 the school

organized a Charity Lucky Dip

in which pupils’ old toys and

things are won by other stu-

dents; every student extracted a

small piece of paper with a

number written on it, this num-

ber was related to a toy or an

object. All the objects and toys

had to be in very good condi-

tions.

Last year two important soli-

darity projects took place in our

school.

On the 4 of December in our

school took place a solidarity

project named “ rigiocattolo”

that means giving a new life to

old toys. On that day, old stu-

dents’ toys were collected at

school and sold to other stu-

dents, teachers and parents who

wanted could give their contri-

bute. The money collected has

been used

to buy and

send me-

dicines to

pregnant

women

suffering

from AIDS

in Africa.

These me-

This project was fun for chil-

dren like us but the most im-

portant thing is that the money

collected supported “ Progetto

Marco” which helps digging

wells in Africa! Wells have al-

ready been dug in Malawi, Ca-

merun, Ghana and Congo!

On 7th August 2018 in

Glasgow something wonderful

happened: in 15 minutes 61 se-

conds and 51 hundredth of se-

conds the new Italian swim-

ming legend, Simona Quadarel-

la, won the golden medal in

1500m in free style. The next

days she won the 800 m free sty-

le and she even won the 400m

free style. That was amazing!!!

We’re proud of her, also because

she is an ex student in our

school.

Simona was born in Rome on

18th December 1998. She lives

in our suburb in Ottavia, in the

north-west of Rome and she at-

tended our school from 2004 to

2012. At the age of 8 she joined

the agonistic swimming team.

She is the first Italian swimmer

to have won a golden medal in

800m at the Olympic games for

young people at Nanjing in Chi-

na in 2014.

Simona is specialised in free

style, she won a golden medal in

1500m in the World Young

Championship in Singapore. But

the best results were in 2018

whe she won 3 golden medals in

400m, 800m and 1500m in

Glasgow for the European

Championship.

These players always win tennis

games for about 15 years. Stefa-

nos Tsitsipas is ready to do that,

too.

A star is born, Stephanos

Tsitsipas. This is the most im-

portant thing in his life. Everyo-

ne admires his victory. The Ca-

nadian organizers of the tennis

tournament asked Tsitsipas

how he felt about his victory.

Tsitsipas said: "I felt like I had

to do it because my country has

been through difficult times in

recent weeks and people have

died. One of my friends is in the

hospital. That was the least I

could do".

Tsitsipas is the new star of

tennis. He will become a very

big tennis player.

Stefanos Tsitsipas is a famo-

us Greek tennis player. He

achieved the biggest victory in

Djokovic's dominating career.

Stephanos Tsitsipas appears

well on the tennis superstar.

Tennis fans wait patiently for

his appearance. He is a strong

player and he will come out of

the shadows of the four big ten-

nis players in the world: Roger

Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak

Djokovic and Anne March.

We also like playing tennis

because of him.

Tuesday, January 29th, seve-

ral classes met each other at the

Bordeaux's velodrome for an

athletics challenge.

During this sports meeting,

we participated in several track

and field events. To begin, we

launched the javelin. We had to

launch it as far as possible.

Then we had to throw a weigh-

ted ball.

The third track and field

event was the multi-leap and

the fourth the hurdles race. To

finish, we participated in a re-

lay race. We are happy to have

been to the velodrome!

It would be fantastic if you ca-

me to school one day to partici-

pate in an athletic challenge!

ła, Jakub Wolny and Stefan Hu-

la.

In 2019 the best results were

achieved by Dawid Kubacki and

Kamil Stoch, but the best cham-

pion was Dawid Kubacki. He

was the winner of the world in

Seefeld in Tirol in Austria. The-

re were such exciting competi-

tions. After the first part of

competitions Dawid Kubacki

was 27th and Kamil Stoch was

18th Suddenly, it was so windy

In our country people like

watching and doing a lot of va-

rious sports. Many people at

different ages love ski jumping

which is believed to be the most

famous and popular winter

sport in Poland. It is loved by

children, teenagers as well as

adults.

There are a lot of ski jumpers in

Poland. The best one was Adam

Małysz. When he stopped jum-

ping, some new champions

appeared. They are: Kamil

that ski jumpers could not jump.

After some fantastic tries, Polish

competitors won the first and

the second prize. Dawid Kubacki

got gold and Kamil Stoch silver.

The Polish are proud of

their sportsmen. A lot of people

see them live, there are also

such spectators for whom ski

jumpers are idols who inspire

them to take up ski jumping.

On Friday 19 March our

school went to the theater. The

name of the theater is Olym-

pion. It is in Thessaloniki. We

saw the story “Arabian Nights”.

Shahrazad tells the story. There

are three episodes. In the story

there are fantastic things, fai-

ries, lanterns, and big palaces.

In the first episode Sinbad the

Sailor is on an island because

his ship sank. He must tell a

story to save his life.

In the second episode Ali Baba

is a lazy boy. He wants to go in

the cave of the forty thieves. He

says “open sesame” and he goes

inside. He takes money from

the thieves and he takes them to

his home.

In the third episode Aladdin is

a boy and he loves Jasmine.

He wants to marry her. He

finds the magic lantern. There

is a Jini in the lantern and the

Jini helps him. He has many

adventures. At the end he

marries Jasmine.

We liked the story very much.

It says that we must take care

of our family and friends. The

children love this story.

Hello readers!

This time Angelika and Lenka

will introduce you to the world of

Polish culture. Is it possible to

meet anyone who does not read

books at all? I think, no. Let’s

look into something classic – our

noble poet Adam Mickiewicz.

His famous works such as:

„Dziady”, „Pan Tadeusz”, „Oda

do Młodo-

ści”

should be

read by

everyone.

Why don’t we talk a bit about

Polish cinema? We are proud of

the Polish cinematography. So-

me Polish directors are known

worldwide, especially Andrzej

Wajda, Roman Polański and

Krzysztof Kieslowski. As every-

body knows the most important

film

award

is the

Oscar.

The

first

Polish

film,

nomi-

nated for this film award was

“Nóż w wodzie” directed by Ro-

man Polański.

Time for music! Polish mu-

sic has been constantly develo-

ping and becoming more and

more popular not only in Poland

but also on international charts.

There are a lot of young singers

like Margaret or Michał Szpak

who achieved a success in Euro-

vision song contest and even in

the USA .
