They were impressed by what
they saw, but wished they could
have seen a little more.

A group of students and
teachers from both Saanich and
Victoria school districts, from
Stelly’s, Claremont and Oak
Bay, travelled to the Soviet
Union recently on an educa-
tional and cultural excursion
during the spring break.

‘‘We asked to po ‘the
(Bolshoi) ballet, and to a Soviet

high school,’’ said Andree
Dufleit, a French teacher at
Claremont.

While the group did not see
the ballet nor visit a high school

REPORT SAYS:

in the Soviet Union, they did
take in the youth palace, a
meeting place for Soviet artists
and athletes with common in-
terests.

At the palace, the Saanich

School District students mixed
and conversed with not only
Soviet students, but also high
school peers from the United
States and Great Britain.

“The youth palace is for
students to further themselves,’’
said Dufleit, who began
organizing the trip in January,
1986.

“Two of the Soviet. students
spoke English very fluently.
They obviously devote a lot of
time to language. It’s a priority
to their education,’’ she said.

stopped in. Helsinki, Finland,
for a day while returning home.

In Moscow, students
teachers visited: various sites,
such as the Pushkin Museum,
and made observations of Rus-
sian culture and lifestyles, art
and architecture. But Dufleit
‘said it was the contact with Rus-
sian people that made the most
lasting impression on the
youths.

“I think it was just the peo-
ple, the contact they had. They
learned how a different culture
thinks, the commonalities and
the differences,’’ said Dufleit,
who studied Russian at

and.

the
University of Victoria in 1979.

“They picked up (on the
lifestyles.’’. But, she hopes the
Students became aware of a
level of affluence enjoyed in
Canada, but non-existent in
other parts of the world. ,

“It was a valuable | ex-
perience, Dufleit said. ‘‘] hope
they realize there is more in life
than material goods.”’

In Leningrad, Dufleit said,
the group learned how attached
to history of Russian people
are, with reminders of the Se-
cond World War and_ the
revolution. In Yalta, however,
the scenery changed somewhat.

“Yalta is a coastal town. It
was sunny, but there was still
snow on the ground,’ Dufleit
said, referring to the rural at-

’ mosphere.
