Greetings to the Polish pupils, from Treviso!!

Witamy w Treviso!

Treviso jest małym miastem oddalonym o około 20km od Wenecji. Jest czyste i posiada dużo zieleni i parków w odrόżnieniu od wielu innich miast włoskich, co pozwala młodzieży w wolnym czasie chodzić na spacery lub spotykać się na placach w centrum miasta. Jest ono otoczone starymi murami obronnymi ktόre posiadaja bramy, z ktόrych najsłwynniejsza jest “porta san Tommaso”.

Nasz szkoła nosi imię “Arturo Martini”, znany rzezbiaż włoski. Uczymy się językόw obcych jak angieslki i do wyboru francuski, hiszpanski lub niemiecki. Są organizowane wycieczki do teatrόw, do kin lub do innych włoskich miast, ktόre mogą trwać nawet całymi dniami. Oprόcz tego oglądamy dużo filmόw edukacyjnych albo w klasie albo w aula magna. Po południu sa zajęcia takie jak koszykόwka, siatkόwka i nauka jazdy na motorowerze.

Na swięta Bożego Narodzenia i pod koniec roku szkolnego są organizowane wieczorki poetyckie.

Pozdrawiamy.

Monika (Stefanini school)
