Spring Day this year will last longer because it is the 50th anniversary of the treaty of Rome. Here is what the site says: “This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Treaties of Rome. For this reason, “Together since 1957: Schools celebrating Europe” is the chosen theme for Spring Day 2007.
This anniversary is an opportunity to communicate about what the EU has achieved so far and to intensify the debate on the future of Europe, a future matching the needs and expectations of young generations.
The new edition of Spring Day for Europe will be held from 26 March – celebrating the 50th anniversary of the signature of the Rome Treaties – to 30 June 2007, with a special focus on 9 May, which is Europe Day. These dates are the two highlights of the event intended to all schools in the EU, as well as accessing and candidate countries.”
