Across the Aegean: Türkiye & Greece

As part of Erasmus Days, NAK Schools in Kuşadası, Türkiye, and Platon Schools in Katerini, Greece, will come together for a one-day cultural exchange celebrating European cooperation, diversity and intercultural understanding.

Throughout the day, students will actively share and discover their countries, schools and local communities. NAK students will introduce Türkiye, Kuşadası and the Aegean region, while students from Platon Schools will present Greece, Katerini and their local culture. Through presentations, cultural games, music, food, creative activities and student-led exchanges, participants will have the opportunity to learn directly from one another.

The event aims to give students a meaningful experience of the Erasmus+ values of openness, inclusion, respect, cooperation and learning across borders. By discovering both the differences and similarities between our two communities, students will develop greater intercultural awareness, curiosity and a sense of belonging to a wider European community.

This one-day event will show that Erasmus+ is not only about travelling—it is about bringing people together, sharing experiences, understanding different cultures and building lasting connections across borders.

One day. Two schools. Two countries. One European spirit. 🇹🇷🤝🇬🇷🇪🇺
