First, they learned how to create their own avatars using tablets and prepared a personal description in their English classes. During ICT lessons, they brought the text and visual elements together and saved their final work into our shared space.

Our talented students eagerly jumped into the creative process. Their task was to artistically capture the main idea of the project: connecting children from different European countries through letter writing, friendship, and getting to know each other.

Our young artists let their imaginations run wild and created a total of 7 wonderful contest designs. Their artworks featured motifs of the globe, envelopes, doves of peace, friendly hands, and the flags of partner countries. Each unique design carried a beautiful message.
