Exchange project with Bydgoscz (Poland)
Project-Info
Start: since 2010, every spring
Duration: 5 days
Funding by the German-Polish Youth Office with participation
Partners involved: Zespół Szkół Samochodowych in Bydgoszcz
Every year, 8-10 students in the pre-vocational years of the BBZ on the Kiel Canal meet with the same number of students studying motor mechanics from Bydgoscz in Poland. The two groups visit each other in their exchange partner’s home country, alternating every year.
The purpose of this is for the young people to meet other young people by staying in each other’s countries – no more and no less. Communication is a major challenge for the students because many of them do not speak English. It is amazing to see how solid acquaintances or even friendships develop within the space of a week.
The project is funded through application to the German-Polish Youth Office (DPJW).
