The day started with ordinary lessons with the host students, and at 9.15 we had Swedish lessons.
Later, the Swedish group played a special trivial pursuit game; they had to answer questions about Catalan customs, and all the things they had learnt while they were in Barcelona. After giving a prize to the winners, we all went to have lunch at school.
Later on, we took the bus to Kemi in order to see the Snow Castle, where we really had fun and saw many interesting items made of ice.
At five o’clock in the evening we had a Farewell dinner at Tornedalsskolan, a very special dinner for the last night in Haparanda.
We heard the speeches from the headmaster and the teachers (Swedish and Catalan), talking about the experience that we all had lived, ones in Barcelona and others in Haparanda, and thanking everybody for the hospitality and kindness that we had been given during the exchange. Two Swedish students (Emilia and Meiju) also made a very emotive speech about how very good friends both Swedish and Catalan had become during those days and about all the emotions and laughts we had shared.
On the one hand, it was a happy dinner full of laughter, but on the other hand, it was also sad, because it was the last night in there for the Catalan group and none of us wanted the project to end.
