Kyiv - Vekshö
Kyiv - Vekshö
From the 9th through the 18th of October the students of Scandinavian Gymnasium visited the partner Katedralskola (Vekshö, Sweden). The Ukrainian students were welcomed by the Swedish students of the same age. The children gained indelible impressions from different excursions.
They visited the Volvo manufacturing plant, the Kosta Boda glass factory, the University of Vekshö and the Elk reserve. The students had an opportunity to visit the Smalandposten newspaper editorial office, to learn how the newspaper is created and to talk to one of the editors. The visit of the Ukrainian students awoke the Swedish journalists’ interest and they wrote an article about the exchange of students. The visit was initiated by Scandinavian Gymnasium and Katedralskola. At the end of February 2010 students from Sweden will visit Kyiv and Scandinavian Gymnasium on a return visit.
