European City Game

For younger pupils we prepared a city game.
The game will take place in the Centre of Lublin. Its participants will have to find answers to questions concerning European issues connected to our city. With this aim, teams will have to visit institutions, find places and talk with some people. The game starts at 10.30 close to the Lublin City Hall and will finish at 12.00 at latest.  

The participants will form teams of 5 persons accompanied by a teacher. There are prizes for completing the game.
