Twinning Youth Exchange Visits

Clackmannanshire Council's fourth youth exchange programme with our twin towns in France and Spain takes place from the 2nd to 18th July 2010.
Week 1
The first part of the youth exchange programme will offer the opportunity for
12 young people from Vendargues in France, and for 12 young people from Espartinas in Spain to spend 9 nights from 2nd to 10th July 2010 with a Clackmannanshire young person of the same age and their family.
Week 2
The second part of the youth exchange will offer the same 24 young people from Clackmannanshire, who hosted the French or Spanish visitors the opportunity to travel to Vendargues or Espartinas to stay with their twinning partner from 10th to 18th July 2010.
Programme
All young people taking part in the exchange visits will participate in a programme of planned activities which will take place during both parts of the youth exchange programme.
Key Aims
The key aims of the exchange are to experience everyday life in either France of Spain, learn about different cultures and customs, and improve foreign language skills.
Adult Supervision
Two experienced Council employees will accompany each of the two groups of young people from Clackmannanshire going to France and Spain. Each of the French and Spanish groups of young people will also be accompanied by two adults.
Cost
Although the youth exchanges are subsidised, participating families will be expected to pay a contribution of around £200 towards overall costs.
