Today was our first day at Zespół Szkół Nr 2 im. Eugeniusza Kwiatkowskiego. We had to wake up at 7.00 am and when we arrived we had a tour around the school where we looked into different classrooms. We also met Joanna, the head teacher. After that we went back to our classroom where Sveinbjörg and Sigríður rehearsed their presentation for the opening ceremony. After rehearsing we had lunch at a cafeteria near the school. The food was quite new for us but very tasty.
Next on the program was the welcoming ceremony where the mayor and some important guests from the school authorities were present. During the ceremony some speeches were made and the Icelandic group presented the school and the mayor with mementos from Iceland and we all got the awesome t-shirts with the Icelandic wool sweater look. The licorice factory in Höfn supplied the group with sweets which were offered at the welcoming ceremony. It is much appreciated.
After school some of us went to the mall for shopping and some r&r after a busy day.
