Collège La Coutanciere welcomed the group warmly, settled them in the families of their students, introduced them to the rules and program, and introduced them to the college teachers.

In the first week of their stay, the group had a diplomatic meeting in the Department of western France — Loire-Atlantique.

It was very nice of them and worthy of us. We talked together about what is different and what is similar in our school compared to theirs.

They expressed their great support and belief in peace to us, and our group thanked them for this and emphasized that this is very important to us. The French deputy asked our students to tell as much as possible to French children about what is happening in Ukraine now, what we are fighting for, and how we live.
