On a beautiful autumn day at 9.30 am, 22 students met in Heroes' Square to take part in the first of a series of AIC-organized city tours, called ‘Step in the footsteps of heroes’. This cultural programme is an opportunity for our young adults, mainly Persians, students, who have been coming to AIC for a few weeks, to gain an insight into the culture, behavior and customs of EU citizens and the history of the country. We also wanted to help them find their way around the city. Our Middle Eastern students learned how many minutes of being late is [...]

On 2 October, our 7 Italian Erasmus students volunteered to plant flower bulbs in our garden at AIC. The idea was to plant bulbous flowering plant bulbs at the beginning of the autumn season and photo document the whole process as it was a noble work done by their own hands. As you can see in the photos, they did not hesitate to get down to work to leave a mark for the whole AIC community so that when spring comes, they can pose with the fruit or shall we say the flowers of their work just before they wrap [...]

After years of preparation and hard work, AIC was finally given the opportunity to offer short-term Erasmus+ mobility experiences to our high school students. This semester, fully embarking on this project, we have completed two trips: first to Italy with a group of older students, and then to Ireland with another group of the younger ones. Ten students were selected to spend two weeks in Ireland accompanied by their history teacher, Mr. Mark. Within this short-term Erasmus program, we took part in a so-called “Authentic Irish Experience” project which meant that we were accommodated by local Irish families in Dublin for the duration of our stay and took part in a two-week course provided by Apollo Language Center. The students spent their classes engaging in interactive learning activities with the aim of gaining a deeper understanding of Irish history, language and culture, and also to expand their knowledge and consciousness of intercultural values and European citizenship.

At Avicenna we started in this year of 2023 to give our most dedicated and hard-working students unparalleled opportunities to take part in travel and study programmes in the so-called Erasmus Group Mobilities as part of our Erasmus projects, supported by the EU Commission, intent on a full swing internationalisation. These mobilities bring us closer to other EU high schools deepening ties at every level and building long lasting relationships for academic, career and friendship purposes. On 19 March we took a plane to Rome with 10 very motivated AIC students to make Avicenna history as the very [...]

On 13 March we decided to take out all of our Italian Erasmus students for the second weekend in a row as some of them are going to leave us in 2 weeks.This Sunday the weather was again very nice and permitting which was pretty unusual after a chilling cold Saturday with gale force winds. We went to the picturesque small town near Budapest called Sant'Andrea which is the Italian for Szentendre, on a day characterized by brightness, sunshine and clear sky. We took the suburban train from Batthany and walked into the city centre to discover the medieval [...]

On the first Saturday of March, we went out with a group of 9 Italian Erasmus students. Five of them arrived at Avicenna on 1 March joining the others who have been here since the beginning of January. The weather was fantastic, a brief but surprisingly intense summary day at the beginning of the astrological Spring allowed us to take to Gellert Hill and spend the late morning hours together on the slopes of Gellert visiting famous landmarks such as the statue of Gellert, the statue of Liberty, the almond -tree garden, the Castello Türke and the unforgettable Philosophers Garden [...]
