21 - 25th August 2007, Corbie, Somme, France

It is the first time we set up cultural workshops as designed within GreenBees. With 13 children aged  from 7 to 10, we set up a show containing a first puppet show, displaying the old trades and jobs in Picardie in former times. And a Picardie tale played by the children themselves.

The workshops

Antoine is impressed

Victoire and Léa get clean after the "test" of the mask

Laure does not find it so hard...

Gwenaelle does not move anymore...
