Father Wacław Rabczyński Middle School in Wasilkow

Our project is entitled: “Wasilkow- town of multicultural harmony”.

Project Coordinators are Katarzyna Rybnik and Mariusz Sokolowski.

Let's be fully aware of all the importance of this day, because today among the generous walls of Bologne-sur-Mer we have met not as Frenchmen with Englishmen, nor Russians with Poles, but as People with People”.

L. Zamenhof
