Happy New Year!

It has come around so quickly, we are already in 2012! The EVS volunteers are back from their holidays in their native countries, it has been a great time to relax and enjoy company with friends and family and after many celebrations the time has come to return to the Czech Republic. We hope that you have also enjoyed the festive season, and in this new year we hope to bring you more new and exciting activities at OKO. Look out for our new exhibition coming soon!

It's nearly Christmas!

Ho Ho Ho! Santa is on his way, so check out the special Christmas themed "spot the difference" game I made for young children under the Presentations tab!

EVS Food Festival and Intercultural Weekend in Olomouc

On the 2nd - 4th of December a group of 22 volunteers from across th Czech Republic took part in this exciting weekend. The task was to create a typical meal from your native country so that everyone else could taste some new cuisine! Us four OKO volunteers were there, trying all the different foods but it was also an opportunity to meet more people from other organisations while we are here in CZ. It was a lot of fun with music, singing, games and crafts as well as cooking to enjoy. Here are some photos of the event!
