A SPECIAL conference was held by staff and students at Egglescliffe School yesterday.
It was part of a Comenius Project involving learning about citizenship in the 21st Century. Schools involved meet annually. Staff and students from England, Italy, Sweden and Holland took part in presentations, speeches, music and IT (information technology) as well as working on a joint website.
Joanna Richardson, Eggles-cliffe School co-ordinator for the project, said: "The last three years have offered an invaluable insight for both staff and students into the workings and educational views of our international friends. We hope to continue with the project and hopefully include even more countries in the future."
