So… What has Avedøre Gymnasium been up to?

by Arslan Ismail

The project work for the ‘Different People – One Europe’ has been going on for a while and in Avedøre Gymnasium we have taken the project seriously. We have held meetings weekly and discussed and concluded a lot of things. For example: should we act in the movies we want to make? How can we make this project seem interesting? Where do we want to hang up posters? Yes, a lot of things have been discussed and everyone has had a piece of the cake. We knew it was really important to structure our plan – and so we did! We made some deadlines and that made us work even harder! Everyone had something to give. We’ve been hanging up posters in our school and everywhere else in Avedøre. We’ve made a film too, which was so much fun! And yet we stayed professional. Postcards have been given to tons of people and the response was very overwhelming! Everyone had a face expression saying: “I-want-to-know-more-about-this-project”. Some stayed for 10 minutes chatting with us!

Oh yeah, and there was this old lady accepting taking the postcard and looking at our posters. She stared at it for a second, smiled and calmly said: How lovely is it to see young guys like you trying to make a difference! And there we were admiring ourselves… – A nice experience.

 We’re all really excited for the upcoming event at our school. It will be held on 7^th of April! We can’t wait to show the rest of the school why we’ve been so busy lately, he he. But we have to keep working on the project because everything isn’t fully done yet. We need to make another video – or two – maybe three. We also have to take more pictures! I mean, who gets tired of taking pictures?

Everything seems under control. So far it has been a pleasure being a part of this project! As a teacher said: “We need more of these projects! You guys works your but* off!”. What can I say? Everyone seems happy!
