lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I should like to illustrate the past success of Socrates through soup. Yes, you heard me correctly. This was not my idea but the idea of Whitfield Primary School in Dundee, Scotland. These people came up with a "Soups in Europe" project, working with partner schools in Austria, Denmark, Italy and France. Their idea was that soup is a common food amongst people and that soup transcends boundaries. Through this project, which was directly related to the Scottish curriculum, they organised a parents' soup day and, with their other partners, produced a book with 25 soup recipes. Through soup and the support of Socrates the outcome of this project was more motivated pupils and staff, a greater awareness of their own environment as well as other places, and increased understanding of information communication technology. I hope that the next Socrates programme produces more projects like that of Whitfield Primary School and maybe the next time you tuck into a bowl of soup, you will remember the educational value Socrates has across the Union."@en1
