Pictures November 2006, La Jarrie
 Historic & Maritime La Rochelle - a picture taken almost from the doorstep of our hotel in the Old Port.  Shoolyard activities, Ecole Jules Verne, La Jarrie - pupils are doing the same things as they do in Finland.  Poetry in motion - after performing to us the young pupils are on their way back to their places. The Finns have left their bookmark on the whiteboard.  The Big Meeting on Wednesday - the project starts to take form.  Four lovely ladies - Suvi, Christine, Silke and Anne - having refreshments. Esa working hard somewhere else, as usual.  The peaceful beach at Chatelaion - moments before we upset the delicate balance, "Jaakko kulta" ringing in our ears...  Christine giving a presentation of the German school system.  Going on a tour of La Jarrie with Marie-Claire and her pupils.  Class rules.  International visitors at Marie-Danielle's.  Silke vawing the white flag - the Finnish Jokester has struck again!  A Fazer Blue- moment in La Rochelle harbour. |
