Tondergard Skole Norway

Here is finally a sign of life from us in Norway.
Our school is located in Molde, which is a small town with 25,000 citizens on the west coast of Norway. The city is also called the city of roses because it is so beautiful nature here.

The school has 60 pupils. Most people go to secondary school. Some students also live in the boarding-facilities through the week.

Last week we had the theme of friendship and solidarity. Then we had many exciting activities among other boccia tournament, disco, cinema and we invited one another at lunch.

Currently there is no snow here but it's cold. So now we can soon try our skates.

Here are some pictures of our school and the last week:

Vattunöden

One day, we were going to Vattenoden(I don’t know how to spell it on English exactly).

We rid a bus, and then we walked to a house, were we met some people. We talked a bit, and then my group walked with a man  who’s name was Olof. We walked trough the forest and came to a place were there was a house for 100 years ago. And Olof showed us a big cliff, and we had to be careful. He told us why the cliff’s name was Lastberget. Then Olof showed us in witch direction north, south, east and west were. All of us walked back to the house, and we picked acorn from the ground. Then Olof took the next group and another person took us to a fire, and we whittled a kind of toy, witch made sound.  I don’t know it’s English name. While we whittled, an acorn fell down on my head! I said:

Who’s throwing stones at me?!

After the toys, we ate lunch. It was delicious!

Then, one more person took us long into the forest. We made shapes of sticks. Then, we fed the sheep with the acorns, and we were on an adventure course.

Then we leaved. The end!
