Visit to Gheorghe Titeica School, Romania

During our half term break my son Ross (who is a pupil at Springfield Primary) and I visited our partner school in Constanta. We left the Uk on Wednesday,amidst grey clouds and rain, and were rather happy to find it was 26 degrees and sunny when we landed in Bucharest. It took over 2 and a half hours, by car, to get to Constanta, but we enjoyed looking at many places along the way.



It was our first visit to Romania, but having seen such beautiful places and received such a warm welcome, I am sure it won't be our last. We were overwhelmed with how friendly all the staff, pupils and parents were, and we enjoyed trying all the food that was made for us - even if there was so much of it!






The pupils at the school are wonderful. Ross enjoyed visiting the classes and talking to the pupils. He was impressed by their english. I think he enjoyed feeling so important when the children wanted to ask him questions.







We would once again like to say a big thank you to everyone who made our visit so enjoyable and I am sorry we couldn't stay longer because Romania is a wonderful place :o)
