Spring Day in "Zaliakalnio"
"Spring Day in Europe" is intended to promote knowledge about the European Union with the aim of establishing a dialogue between pupils, teachers and players in the European Union about their vision of Europe and its future. “Spring Day in Europe" is a marvellous opportunity for young people to share their experiences. This year, the pupils of “Zaliakalnio” High School launched a Spring Day with the aim of investigating their culture from the perspective of young Europeans.
We all can identify London by the Red Buses, Madrid by Puerta del Sol, and Berlin by Cafes in Kreuzberg. They are parts of the soul of their cities. So the team of the EURR decided to ask the pupils of “Zaliakalnio” to find the soul of Klaipeda. The task was to reveal some items by which it would be easy recognize Klaipeda immediately. So high school pupils did their best to bring a part of their soul to the art exhibition and show how beautiful Klaipeda is, and we invite everybody to a final trip to the heart of Klaipeda. Join City Soul Art Contest!
