We have discussed borders, and weve come to the
conclusion that one important thing is to have
respect for each others borders because
everyone has their own borders and if we do not
respect that, then well never get a free Europe!!
11
The colour of our skin
In this world, the colour of peoples skin makes
borders.
We think that isnt necessary.
All people are the same on the inside!
12
Prejudice
Prejudices make a wall between people.
If people have Prejudices, they make a border
between themselves.

The EU means...
No Borders!

No Borders
We think that borders are created by the fear of
the stranger, and we believe that we can
eliminate borders with help of friendship,
knowledge of different cultures and other ways of
thinking. Each person is different and that is
good, because if not it would be a very boring
life. To lose the fear, we must learn to respect
other cultures with different religions,
different food... All this should be done to
achieve a better and a happier life.

National Dishes
There are many national dishes from different
countries, but all of them are delicious. It is a
good example how different we all are. During the
opening evening we had a chance to try the dishes
from other countries. They characterise a
nations mentality.
