from 28 June to 5 July 2025

fi rathaus 300The 16 participants (14 from Germany and 2 from Great Britain) in the Language and Culture Week were welcomed in Fiennes with a warm “Bienvenue” by the organising team of the Lille section. 
The program included: an intensive week of French, enjoying local culinary specialties, and exploring the cultural treasures of the region... all in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
At the end of the week, all participants unanimously declared: it was an excellently organized event that will remain a fond memory for everyone.

I hope that many friends of Eurojumelages will be inspired by the following article written by the participants and perhaps take part in next year's Language and Culture Week in France.

OSCAR 2025 at the Silbersee holiday park

o25 Logo Oscar PB 180aThis year's OSCAR took place at the Silbersee holiday park near Frielendorf in the North Hesse region, also known as Little Red Riding Hood country, from 16th – 20th June. The event was organised by the Marburg section and strongly supported by Sabine and Ronald from the Konstanz section, who live nearby.
Places had been reserved for 100 people in houses, bungalows and flats at the holiday park. As the registration deadline approached, there were less registrations than anticipated and it was thought that the number of participants would not reach 80. However, as the deadline loomed, there was a flood of registrations.

The participants were divided into groups according to their language proficiency level. They were all allocated to three classrooms where the teachers were already waiting for them. At the last minute, one person decided to participate in the beginners' course, even though she initially was not enrolled to undertake a course. Bravo!
