El passat mes d’octubre vint-i-nou alumnes del projecte Time to learn English, acompanyats de dos professors van realitzar un intercanvi amb el col·legi danès de Videbaek. Fou una setmana sencera plena de diverses activitats culturals i d’oci. Aquestes ens proporcionaren una ampla visió de la manera de viure, així com dels costums, indústries, agricultura i economia pròpies del país. Fou també una setmana on es fomentà la convivència entre els danesos i nosaltres.
Entre les visites que vam realitzar cal destacar la visita a l’ajuntament de Videbaek, on vam ser molt amablement rebuts pel batle de la ciutat, que ens va explicar la idiosincràcia de la zona. Al final de la visita ens obsequiaren amb un clauer amb l’escut de la ciutat, i amb un símbol al·lusiu a la ciutat. Així com també l’excursió a Legoland a on els alumnes van poder gaudirde les miniatures fetes amb peces de lego dels edificis més significatius d’arreu del món, així com també de les nombroses atraccions del parc temàtic. Una altra de les excursions interessants fou la del parc de molins eòlics on els alumnes pogueren estudiar el funcionament i utilització d’aquests aparells per produir energia elèctrica.
Tot plegat fou una experiència summament enriquidora per tots.
Els alumnes de les dues escoles s’ho passaren molt bé junts i l’hora de tornar cap a Mallorca se’ls va fer bastant costa amunt,i tot eren cares tristes; malgrat tot l’alegria de saber que els danesos vindran a la nostra escola el mes de maig feu que l’acomiadament no fos tan trist.

L'opinió dels alumnes
TRAVEL TO DENMARK!!!
My travel to Denmark was very cool, but it was also wonderful. We were 8 hours, more or less, travelling to Videbæk, but it was worth going there.
In Videbæk, we did a lot of things, like going swimming, we also went to the "Jumping Pellow"(an extrange kind of our "cama elástica"), to Legoland, to the Youth’s club (we called it the "Yonki´s club), etc... The worst moment was when we had to come back to Spain, because everybody, except two people, were crying during half an hour, more or less.
In general, it was a fantastic new experience.

A WEEK IN VIDEBAEK
Videbaek is a beatiful place. There are a lot of houses and a “Haller”. The “Haller is a sports centre whereyou can find a swimming pool, a football’s court, a basketball’s court, a handball’s court, and a gym. Everything (except the swimming pool) is free. Videbaek has a lot of green places, and everybody goes by bike, not by car, although they have a cars. The people there are fun and friendly. Theyare also very cheerful. In Denmark we went to the farm, to thefishing museum, to the Aeolian mills and to Legoland.
Videbaek is the best town in Denmark, and the travel was a very good experience.

DENMARK
Going to Denmark has been a very good experience and it has been very fun. When we arrived, we were very nervous, but the Danish families had prepared a very nice welcome to all of us. Everybody were waving flags. After the welcome we went to the families’ houses, and the houses were very big and nice. We did a lot of activities and all of the activities were very fun. The best one, in my opinion was going to Legoland, a fairground. The last night we had a farewell dinner and we danced, and the next day we came back to Mallorca. The farewell was very sad but we knew that we will see our Danish friends again in May.

TRIP TO DENMARK
I got up at 5:00 and I had a big breakfast. I dressed up and I went to the airport with my baggage. The plane took off at 7:00. Two hours later we arrived to Hamburg. Then, a bus carried us to Videbaek.The Danish families were waiting for us with a lot of Danish flags. We went on a lot of excursions: the farm, the eolic energy central, Legoland, etc… Food was very good and families were very friendly. Days hurried up. Goodbye was sad and we cried because we left back good pen friends.
I‘m looking forward to see them again in May and return to Denmark one day in the future.
