Felipe Kaufman Gorodovits
A child who joyfully plays
Without hearing the noise of the explosion.
The sun rises, the sun sets
Enlightening the trees
That were not cut yet
The drops of rain flowing down the neck
Unaware they were tears
The next day arrives
And says it’s still worth
The crack of the half open door
Waiting for the family to return
The roaring strength of the waterfall
Remembering the fish that once swam
The hat over the head
Of a tired man,
Alone, smiling,
Knowing by his side is someone to trust

In the context of the International Summer School 2026, students from New Zealand, Brazil/Israel, China, Taiwan, Greece, Cyprus/UK, Sweden, Finland, Hongkong, England and Switzerland came together at the Zurich University of Teacher Education. As part of the event „Gamification in Education“ (Franziska Spring & Peter Holzwarth), the students also dealt with the topic of „Life Skills, mindfulness and games“. The playful and mindful use of language was also a topic. The simply constructed poem „Pleasures“ by Bertolt Brecht was adapted as a remake.
