Primary 3 travelled to Windmill Integrated Primary School to enjoy a 'Lithuanian Day'. We had lots of fun learning about Lithuania from Lima (parent of a Windmill IPS pupil) and Viktoriya (parent of a Bush PS pupil). They taught us about where Lithuania is in Europe, their culture, language and food. The children thoroughly enjoyed tasting all the lovely samples that were kindly provided for them. They also particularly enjoyed seeing and feeling pieces of amber (Lithuanian gold) and making designs on eggs. In Lithuania, at Easter, children wrap eggs up in colourful flowers and onion skins then boil them to produce beautiful designs. We are going to try this nearer Easter!
