Student day and more

Abstract

As Theresien and Maria Daniela have explained Student Day has given us a great opportunity to get in contact with future OTs around the world. Thanks to Student Day we could easily recognise each other at the congress. The Swedish occupational therapy students organised a picnic for all the students on Wednesday 26th June. The message about the picnic was passed round by word of mouth. The picnic was a great success as it enabled us to get to know the students on a personal level. We got to know more about their life, their country as well as the areas they would like to specialise in after they graduate. The Swedish students tried to involve us in a traditional game which resembles baseball... hopefully I will never have to play this game again. Telling you I was hopeless at it would be an understatement. On the last day of the congress all the students wrote their email address and area of interest at the reception desk and the list was mailed to us last week.
