The visit provided the opportunity to discuss the different aspects related to the partnership in view of submitting the application form. The participants visited the host school and took part at various classes, familiarising with new things about the Polish educational system. Each partner created a presentation of his school.

There also took place a meeting with the mayor of Daleszyce , which assured us that he would offer us all the support we need to expand this partnership.
