During the week starting 3 March 2024, a group of 10 students accompanied by Ms Emily Farrugia and Mr Roberto Calleja, participated in our Erasmus+ exchange project “Habits for Success” in Vasa, Finland.
Similarly to what took place in Malta back in January, the group participated in different workshops that helped them hone skills for their personal development and adopt new habits to live a fulfilling life. The week’s programme involved hands on activities, trekking in a visit to a UNESCO World Heritage site. The participant students involved themselves in popular local pastimes such as skiing and sledding, whilst sharing the experience of living at the homes of their Finnish counterparts, thus immersing themselves in the daily routine of a local. The group also experienced the Finnish educational system by joining some lessons and discussing various methods and approaches with their teachers.
This project started with the Malta exchange in January and will close with an exchange in Belgium next April. This activity is coordinated by the JC International Office and co-funded through the Erasmus+ Programme.
