Christmas Decorations Making Workshop at Shipcon Limassol Ltd.

  On the 17th of December 2011, a group of adult learners gathered to enjoy each other’s company, listen to Christmas carols and give vent to their creativity during Christmas Decorations Making Workshop
















  As learners of different nationalities (Cyprus, Poland, UK, Ireland, Germany) participated in the workshop, it was a great occasion to get to know more about various European traditions of celebrating Christmas.




 
During the workshop easily accessible materials such as colour paper, paint, fabric, ribbons and glitter were used. 

  After the workshop the participants reported that they enjoyed sharing experiences, felt inspired to bring more creativity to their lives, became more interested in other European cultures and last but not least they had great fun.
