Let’s say “Hello” to Europe

 Poster campaign, 26 Medi 2023, N. Gynaikokastro, Kilkis, Greece

Our school, the Junior High School of Ν. Gynaikokastro, participated in the celebration of the European Day of Languages with two posters created by the students of all three grades. The project touched upon raising awareness about languages and cultural backgrounds of countries in Europe and beyond. Students explored different languages and their origins as well as the way people say ‘hello’, ‘how are you?’ and ‘thank you’ in lots of different languages. Based on Lara’s journey, we discovered each country’s cultural traits and afterwards the students designed the poster by depicting a number of flags and writing greetings in speech bubbles. The logo of the European Day of Languages was recreated in a collage with crepe paper. Our aim was to sensitize the students on the value of learning languages and respecting other cultures and nationalities in multilingual and multicultural environment.
