GiggleIT Traveldoc

Welcome to the GiggleIT Projects online travel blog. This is the place you can follow Mr Giggle’s travels around the world as he accompanies children from our participating Special Envoy Schools. These schools act as consulates for Mr Giggle, protecting and keeping him safe on his travels around the world. Mr Giggle is the world ambassador for the GiggleIT Project.

Special Envoy Schools can take a photograph of Mr Giggle in different parts of the world, country, local area on school trips, or just relaxing around school. These are then sent back to the GiggleIT Team to be displayed up on the website (Traveldoc) with accompanying text which allows your students to practice English writing skills and or speaking skills about their special area of the world and their travels with Mr Giggle. So for example if a Special Envoy School takes a school trip to the snow fields, Mr Giggle can go too! His travels are then sent back to the GiggleIT website for upload.

Schools may choose to present video of Mr Giggle's travels, but this must be hosted on the school site Submit the URL to the GiggleIT team and a link to the page hostingthe video will be provided from the school's GiggleIT webpage.

Mr Giggle travels to Ukmerges Uzupio Secondary School in Ukmerge, Lithuania

Mr Giggle enjoys the Advent Wreath celebrations with his students and teachers from Ukmerges Uzupio Secondary School in Lithuania. This school is a Special Envoy School of the GiggleIt Project.

Students and staff of Ukmerges Uzupio Secondary School include Mr. Giggle in their festivities, preparing for Christmas in Lithuania. The English class students, staff and Mr Giggle are making an Advent wreath together. The Advent wreath always has candles - this one includes fresh evergreens, cones, apples, and glass ornaments, too. Mr. Giggle is happy to see that candy is also part of this Advent wreath! If we roll up each candy in a ribbon, then we can unroll one each day of Advent and enjoy the sweetness as we countdown to Christmas. Candles light the dark winter's night as Lithuanian children await Christmas.
