Today was the beginning of our journey to Ireland. We had to be at the airport by 7:45, but the team got together around 8 o’clock. After that a long wait began in the line of the luggage department , where we were waiting for around an hour. Before getting to the gate, and getting on the plane, our IDs were checked, and then we rushed to the gate. Here we had to wait another 10 minutes, and got our IDs checked for the last time before the flight. During the boarding of the plane, everyone was excited about Ireland ,and the flight because for some us it was the first flight of their life. The flight was calm, obviously we had some turbulence, but apart from that we had a normal trip. The plane arrived around half past one, after getting our luggage back, we headed to a bus which took us for the meeting point with the families. From this meeting point the families took everyone home, and after packing out ,everyone had some time on their own. For example some of us went to the city ,and did window shopping and started to discover the streets and the traveling.

First of all, during this one week the major goal is, to upgrade our english language. The next important thing is to get to know the culture of Ireland, and learn about the acceptance, inclusion and diversity in Europe. We think that's very out-standing to earn knowledge about these things, because we can use it in many different areas in our life. We are looking forward to get to know this city... its culture, cuisine, history, and at the family where we live. Since we are taking part in the Erasamus project, we will work in groups to deepen our knowledge of acceptable.

Hétfőn volt az első foglalkozásunk a Babel Academy of English-en. Bemutatkozással kezdtük, és játszottunk egy játékot, a „ki vagyok én”, hogy jobban érezzük magunkat. Ezt követően megismerkedtünk a különböző kultúrákkal és országok sztereotípiáival. Többnyire 5-6 fős csoportokban dolgoztunk, és elkezdtük a felkészülést a ppt-inkre. Néhány ír szót is csak szórakozásból tanultunk, mint például a slan, ami viszlát. Együttműködésünk és szókincsünk egyre jobban fejlődött.

After school, a tourist guide showed us the best-known and most spectacular places in the city. She told us the history about the places we went . First we were at the O'Conell Street which is the most widest street in Europe, then she showed the O'Conell bridge. From there we went to the Temple bar and the Dublin castle. After the guided tour was over we went to the St. Patrick's Cathedral.

On Tuesday we had drama workshop in school where we played some introduction games, which helped us develop our communication skills and get a deeper connection between us. We played games such as “snowball fight”, “tabuu”, “detectives” or “werewolf (game)” which helped us gain more confidence in the english language and expand our cooperation skills. We also worked on our project and did some research on it.

After school we went to the National Museum of Ireland where we observed the “Soldiers and Chiefs” exhibition. We were introduced to the Irish war of independence. We got a worksheet where we had to answer fourteen questions about the exhibition. We got to know about the story of the drummer boy and the woman soldier. We work in groups of 3-4 and at the end we checked our answers. We gained knowledge about the Irish history and get a closer look about that period.

After school we went to the national gallery. We filled out a quiz that consisted of looking for pictures on the floors. On the first floor we could see the works of famous painters such as Monet or Picasso. On the third floor, we saw the paintings of Estella Salamons. This trip gave us many new experiences.

And last but not least, after the National Gallery, we headed to the Dublin Caste. Unfortunately we didn’t have much time left, because the castle was about to close, but we had enough time, to walk around, and watch the huge rooms, the beautiful paintings and the old decorations on the walls. It was spectacular, I think I can say that everyone loved it.

On Thursday, as we arrived to school, we finished our ppts for the presentations about inclusion and diversity. When every team got ready, they presented it to groups of Spanish students. After the presentations, we asked the students questions about the topic and they answered us.

After we finished everything, everyone started asking eachother about their countries. While talking to them, we advanced our social and communication skills. Also we made friends with them, so now we got friends from abroad too.

After school we went to drink a national coffee and on our way to the cafe we came across with the Mikolaus. We took a picture with him and he suggested us a typical Irish cafe.  We ordered coffees and told some stories about ourselves. This way we have improved our social and communication skills. After that we went to Connolly Station, where we met up with our teachers. When the whole class was there we went to the train station, where we boarded the train that took us to Dalkey. It is a hillside suburb with many castles. We found the Cheevers family's castle with it's flag that contains three goats with a red background. Than we walked around the city to visit a few seesights. We went down to the docks and took a few pictures of the Martello tower and the St. Begnet's Church. We got to know what an Irish island and coastal town look like and also saw beautiful seesights!

Today we went to the Howth Cliffing Walk. We met at the Insoma Caffee shop in Howth and then went for a big walk around the peninsula. Howth is a beautiful area next to Dublin and it’s only a few train stop from the city centre. Most of the headland is hilly, with a few peaks around 150 meters. It is also really cliffy. The cliffs support a large group of birds and floras. Climbing up was a little challenging because the road was frozen but while we were walking we had a really beautiful view of the sea and great morale so it was definitely worth it. After that, we took a bus to go back down. Then we went to see the Howth Lighthouse. It was built in the early 19th century to help guide shipping between Ireland and England but in 1982 it was decommissioned and replaced by a modern pole light on a nearby extension of the pier which we also saw. Nowadays it helps the fishing boats. In the port you can easily find restaurants where you can try fish n’ chips with fresh fish and also some traditional meal. After our trip we had a free time activity for the afternoon.

Because of this program we gained knowledge about inclusion and diversity while we were also introduced to Ireland’s history and culture. It was an effective way to improve our communication skills. Throughout the week we had the opportunity to see a lot of attractions and talk to the locals. We had a wonderful time, everyone was satisfied at the end of the trip. We are grateful for the opportunity.
