Our Multilingual passport

 Language Exchange, 20 sen 2025 - 26 sen 2025, Paphos, Cyprus

Students from eight partner schools collaborate to create a “Language Passport” to celebrate the European Day of Languages. Each school selects a different word or short phrase (such as “good morning”, “thank you”, “good night”) and shares it with all partners in its mother tongue and in English. Students then complete their passports by writing the chosen word in all partner languages, creating a mini multilingual dictionary with six languages per page. This activity promotes linguistic diversity, encourages collaboration between schools, and allows students to discover similarities and differences among European languages in a playful way.
