Quimper is a charming city located in the Region of Brittany in France. On the first day of our visit, we had the pleasure of enjoying a wonderful walk around its streets and admiring its architectural harmony. Crepes with hot chocolate, cream and caramel put the icing on the cake and provided our pupils with the energy needed for a week of hard work. Ready to meet our parnerts!

Working in international groups
Pupils were placed into groups with members of different nationalities. Using entertaining games to get to know a city is an educational way of starting to build communication and strengthen ties among the members of the group.
Instructions were given to the students as this presentation shows.

The association Handisport Cornouaille Quimper offered our pupils the opportunity to feel how it is like to be in the disabled people's shoes: learning to deal with disabilities and overcoming barriers to keep on living and adjust to difficult situations.
