Feedback

“The whole program had a playful and attractive form. The kids did not even notice the break signals and they continued in finishing their work instead. In a live atmosphere they opened up their imagination and started to realize their roles in life and in the world. Their feedback was very positive.”

“The HY Worker was managing the workshops very well. The lesson was well planned, the kids took an active part in it and they were able to work with the information during a follow-up. We appreciated the program and we are looking forward to the potential future cooperation.”

The basic ethic principles were presented in an entertaining way and they helped to form the kids’ attitudes to some important life values.
