Last week, pupils from Kolkja School in the Lake Peipsi region learned about Old Believers’ Eastern traditions and egg decorating.
Children also took part in a hands-on workshop, dyeing eggs using natural materials such as onion skins, red cabbage, and blueberries.
In April we will organize another workshop at the Kolkja Old Believers Museum to focus on traditional food practices and cultural heritage. Participants will prepare dishes typical of the region—featuring ingredients like onion, fish, cabbage, and cucumber—while deepening their understanding of the area’s diverse food culture.
By embedding cultural relevance, multilingual communication, and intergenerational cooperation into project activities, we aim to create an inclusive environment where all community member feel welcomed.
Our project, “Cultivating Community and Sustainability in the Lake Peipsi Region,” is supported by the Call “EU Staff for a Fair and Sustainable Future,” managed by the King Baudouin Foundation.
The project promotes intergenerational learning by bringing together seniors, who share traditional ecological knowledge, and young people, who contribute new sustainability practices.
