Local workshop in Cyprus

14th of May 2011 ShipCon Limassol Ltd. conducted a local workshop during which a group of adult learners had a chance to develop their creativity while they decorated pebbles found on the beach. 
The learners used oil pastels and dough to create beautiful colorful stones. 
The workshop was carried out outdoors so the nature was an important source of inspiration and the participants invented very original designs. 
As the learners were adults of five different nationalities, they also had a chance to improve their skill in communication in English language and interpersonal, intercultural skills. 




Not only beautiful stones but also team spirit and great moods were result of the event.
