OUR STUDENTS'  IMPRESSIONS

 

The visit of students from Denmark was one of unforgettable events, because I met a good friend.

Before Danish pupils came to Slovenia, I was a little nervous how all together will finish.

But when I saw Kristine for the first time, I knew that everything will be okay, because we became  good friends right away, and at home we had a lot of fun together. Maybe I regret only that I didn't speak with all Danish students. Anyway,  next year we will go to Denmark and we will meet  Danish pupils again!

  Last week twenty  Danish students  were in Slovenia at our school. It was very interesting to meet them because we found  new friends. We were on a lot of trips and it was great fun. We had the best time on our trip to  Lake Bled and  Ljubljana. We were joking and having a good time.  Ljubljana was very interesting for them and they were asking about it all the time. We were happy because we were able to talk. At the beginning  we couldn`t talk just like that because we were afraid of each other. They were really great and I was very sad when they went home.  I`m sad still now because I miss them.

 

                        It was really, really fun and I can`t wait until September when  we are going  to  Denmark.

Last week we had a visit from Denmark. Twenty Danish pupils came to stay at our homes. It was very funny and interesting. When they first came from the bus we and they were a little afraid of each other. I saw my pen friend Jeppe very soon because I saw his photo not long ago. I went to him, I introduced myself. Very soon we began to speak with each other and realized that it is not difficult  to speak in English. Trips were very nice. We talked a lot. They were very friendly and happy.

 

I really miss them. That week was too short. I hope that they enyojed themselves in our country and that we will stay friends for ever.

On the first day when they  came out of the bus, I was very nervous but at the
same time very happy. I was looking for  Ibina and then I saw her. She was a really
nice girl on the first look. I  gave her  a bunch of traditional Slovenian plants: rosemary and carnation. Then we went to school. There I saw very  friendly Danish faces but at that time I
didn't know  that we would  become really good friends.
And »boom« like a bomb there was  Saturday. Ibina and Amelie were packing and 
I was just looking at them. In my heart there was  a very bad feeling. Then my father
drove us to school. They  went on the bus  and I started to cry,  everybody cried. Then I looked on the bus, and saw that my good danish friends were smiling at me.

We were just waiting for 16th April 2007. This was the day when the Danish visitors came. The reception was very good, the Danes were surprised. On Tuesday we were at school. In the gym hall we had a welcome performance. We were divided into two international groups. Then we had geography, linguistic and sports lessons. In the afternoon we had a beekeeping workshop, a  cooking workshop and dancing classes (we learned how to dance polka). After that we went to the  church of Dobravlje. Next day was very special. We traveled to Bled and Ljubljana. On this trip we were talking and laughing with our new friends from Denmark. We were very tired at the arrival home. Next day Danish visitors  went to Karst. They visited Vipava,  The  Predjama Castle, The Postojna cave and Lipica Stud Farm. They said "IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL". Friday  was hard for Danish students. We went  to the mountains. We walked to the  natural window near Otlica. Then we had a warm meal at the spring of Hubelj. After the meal the bus took us to Vipavski Križ. There we visited the Franciscan friary. A Franciscan priest told us all about the history of  the friary. In the evening we had a farewell party. We  planted  a Danish national tree- a beech. After that we were watching a slideshow of the whole week. The last  day was very sad. Our Danish friends were going home L . We said goodbye to them and they left for the  airport. And now we can’t wait to return our visit in Denmark.

When the Danish came I was a little kept back but with  days when we got to know  them better, we become good friends. We travelled a lot and saw many interesting things. In that week I liked Friday the most because on that day we talked with them the most and found out even more things about them.

On Monday 16th  April I met  a lot of people who later became my friends. That  week was a  great experience for me and for the Danish students, because they and I learned a lot of English words and we overcame the fear. That week will stay in my memory all life. I can’t wait for our visit in Denmark. I think that will be another great experience for all of us.

Slovenia is  a beautiful country the Danish students  said. It's green and very hot. We like it here.
I remember that because I asked  Emilie, my guest. We often tried to have a conversation. It did work sometimes and we had a very lovely time.

The first day was a little bit rough. But we enjoyed  evrey second of the second day
when we went on Bled.
            The weather was great so we also visited Ljubljana. The Danish students bought  a  lot, we never buy so many things. Olander who we called ORHIDEJA  bought himself some shoes. They went to Karst the following day, so on that day we didn't see them a lot. But we had some fun at night.????????? Don't say anything! On Friday I had a dance competition so I didn't go with them. I regret that I didn't go with the rest of the students on that walk and I'll regret it always.
Let's not say anything of Saturday because it was sad. I creed when they left and when I  cleaned after them..
But it will be always a good memory for ever!

All my friends and I couldn't wait  for one day......This day was 16th  of April...because on that day our Danish friends came tous.They ate,slept and lived with us.

On Monday at 5pm they came to Dobravlje. All of us  were waiting in front of

the school. Suddenly we saw the bus.We were very excited because we finally saw our Danish friends.When they came down from the bus, each          of us went to his friend. Then we went to school where each of them got         something about Slovenia.Then our and their teachers said a few words   and after that we showed them our school. Next day we came back to school. There we did many different things. First we had a greeting performance  in the gym hall and then we went  to different classes because we were in different groups. We had different activities.Our geography teacher told something about Slovenia,we were learning words in Danish and they learnt them  in Slovene,we danced polka, ,made potica and learned about bees.

On the next day they went to Bled and Ljubljana.

And on Thursday only the Danish kids went to the Postojna cave, Lipica and to Vipava. First we didn't speak a lot, but after some time we became very good friends.We talked about school, music, movies, our hobbies, animals, Denmark and about Slovenia. On Friday we went to  Gora for a walk,they were very happy because in     Denmark they haven't got such high mountains.After that we had lunch and we had a good time.

In the evening we went back to school because we had a farewell party.There we were dancing, singing and watching a slideshow of photos of the whole week. When we were watching fotos which our teachers took,we were very happy because we spent that week together, but we were sad too because we knew that next day our Danish friends had to  go back home. At the end we ate delicious chocolate cake with names of all Danish friends.We talked a lot in the last few days.We discussed what we will doing when we visit Denmark and what we will do when we are  alone again.And next day it was Saturday.We all thought that yesterday was Monday when they came to Slovenia but it wasn't.It was Saturday and Danish friends went back home.Some of us were crying  but all of us were sad.

I think that we  will all  send e-mails to our friends and that no one will forget this week in his  whole life.

           MY FEELINGS ABOUT DANISH STUDENTS

 

When they came to Dobravlje I was very happy! They were very nice and sweet. They looked just a little different from us. I don`t know why but I think it is because they come from a  different region. Maria and I  had been writing a lot of letters before they  came  to Slovenia. So we didn`t have a problem with connection. I think so. When we  came home, my family said hello to her and then we went into my room.

I was so happy that  Maria was sleeping in my home! Next day was very boring but we had a great time later  when we came home. In Selo we were playing  basketball with  Julie, Nilolaj, Mitja, Jerneja, Luka, Blaž, Maria, Žan… We were having a great time! The trip to Lake Bled was very interesting and romantic. When we came home, we were very tired, so we just ate the dinner and  went to bed! We were so tired! On Friday I and Maria were  together all the time because we were very sad. That was their last day in Slovenia. We were talking all the time! When we came home, we went to the place where we played  basketball. But not on that day! On that day we were playing with water balons! I will never forget those moments and Maria neither! The boys and girls who were playing with Maria, Julie and Nikolaj, were much friendlier with them! I don`t know about Julie and Nikolaj but Maria is missing that  time when we were together more than the Slovenian school and the trip to Lake Bled!

I MISS HER SO MUCH AND I HOPE THAT SHE AND HER MUM WILL COME HERE IN SUMMERTIME!!!
