Registration for the third creativity forum, this time entitled 'Creative Self-Expression', to be held in the University of Tartu Narva College on 18 & 19 August, is open from 10 June.

"Combining learning and playing has become a tradition in Nordic schools, as it increases pupils' motivation, gives them the courage to experiment and look for new solutions and improves their communication and trust, i.e. their social skills," explained Eha Vain, Cultural Adviser at the Nordic Council of Ministers' Office in Estonia who launched the creativity forum three years ago. "Creative teaching is also becoming more widespread in the Estonian education system as well. The Nordic countries and Estonia definitely have something to learn from each other to develop the school system and give our youngsters the best and broadest preparation for independent life."

Registration is open until 3 July or until all places are filled. You should therefore register as soon as possible if you'd like to attend the forum.

The venue of the creativity forum has always been special. The first time it was Naissaar Island; the second time the idyllic Käsmu; and the third forum will take place in Narva on the Estonian-Russian border, more specifically in the architecturally and spiritually unique University of Tartu Narva College.

All participants will receive certificates.
