As the celebration of ErasmusDays is coming closer we are getting prepared. At first, we have designed a banner which shows the constant participation of our school in various Erasmus programs. At the same time, we are choosing exceptional artworks, postcards, photos, flags and posters to be exposed to an open gate installation inside and outside the classrooms of the school. The event will be open to the families of our students, to other teachers and to the local community. The principle aim of the event is  to present the central idea of every project and also disseminate the great feeling of sharing experiences with partners around Europe.
