European students from Bulgaria, France, Italy, Greece, Malta and Poland will promote sports and diversity when participating to events. We aim at social integration to promote teamwork rather than sports performance. Scheduled activities on cultural diversity and sports will help participants break down prejudice, develop relationship to promote European collaboration.

LTTA - Malta
Polish Report
for the 3rd LTT held in Malta, 18th – 22nd
November 2019 EU founded project
Participating
school: Zespol
Szkół Ogólnoksztalcacych nr 1 w Kwidzynie POLAND
Our Polish team consisted of 6 students: Nikola
Krauze, Jakub Pirożek, Ania Nowak, Zuzanna Seklecka, Kamil Nowak, Kamil Snoch
and 2 teachers: Sebastian Więckowski and Piotr Opacian.
We arrived in Malta on the
17th November and due to the airlines timetable left Malta as late
as on the 24th November, two days after the end of the 3rd
LTT. We were the last participants to leave the charming island.
All the week our team was
accommodated in a very comfortable hotel: The Preluna Hotel and Spa,
in Sliema.
We are happy with all the
activities which took place during the 3rd LTT. Everything was
carried out according to the agenda. The activities were diversified, not only
focused on sport and diversity but developed well social skills, mutual trust
and cooperation as well as developed students’ language skills. Students could
communicate only in English which gave them a lot of practice as well as
improved their confidence. Overall, our students found the experience very
rewarding.
Monday, 18th November
On the first day of the LTT our team was welcomed by
the Head of our Maltese partner school and we were shown around the school. Our
students shared with other students multimedia presentations prepared for that
event. Apart from sport and disability in sports they showed an interview with
a boy ( now already a girl ) undergoing sex-changing treatment. The boy was at the time of the interview our
student ( last year ). He was brave enough to
talk about how otherness especially the otherness of sexuality is
perceived by his peers. Not to our surprise, sometimes it makes the life of
“different” people hard. Anyway, our students hope such an interview may help.
Our students watched and listened to their peers from other countries with
great interest. Later on in multinational teams played different sports.
Tuesday, 19th November
During the second day all the students did a trek to
Chadwick Lakes. As there were different activities during the track our
students enjoyed it very much. The activity they found the most challenging and
interesting at the same time was a blindfolded walk. Being led blindfolded by a
stranger speaking English along a bit slippery path climbing to the top of a
hill, and not quite so rarely “stamping their foot into a puddle” splashing the
murky water all around must have been at least a little bit unnerving but at
the same time built up mutual trust and teach team work.
Wednesday, 20th November
This day was sunny again and good. We were to do a
sightseeing tour around the Maltese sister island, Gozo. It was a great day for
our students. They learned a lot about Maltese history, culture and cuisine. The
present and the past intertwined, a perfect tour.
Thursday, 21st November
The day started with a bit of adrenaline – a
competition between teams: Capture the Flag at Ta’ Qali. That was a great wake
up for students, no coffee was necessary. With their minds stimulated in this
way they did the second portion of sightseeing around Mdina’s fascinating
architecture and religious places. That was unforgettable day for our students
and the farewell dinner in the evening even though a very pleasant event itself
was a sad reminder that their wonderful experience was coming to the end. After
the meal all the students were given certificates testifying their participation
in this LTT mobility.
Friday, 22nd
That was a day of farewell to other teams. The Maltese team organized some activities at
Golden Bay beach to make it less discomforting. Nevertheless, some tears
appeared.
Saturday,
23rd
That was a full day to wait for an early flight on
Sunday morning. Our team didn’t want to lose it. We had arrange still before
our arrival at the 3rd LTT a sea kayaking trip along a piece of
Maltese coast with MC Adventure Malta. The weather was great. A gentle breeze
from the east made it a bit more challenging to the delight of our
students.
Sunday, 24th
Early Sunday morning greeted us all at the Maltese
airport. It was the ultimate time to say goodbye to Malta. Thank you Maltese
team it was a perfectly organized mobility. Thank you Bulgaria, France, Greece
and Italy! It wouldn’t have been that great without you.
