The fifth event took place in the small Spanish town of Cheste, in the period 20 – 22 of November 2019. Cheste is in close proximity with Valencia and is a world-renowned city on the motorcycle track that hosts MOTO GP every year.

The event was organized by the organizers of the event - participants in three groups visited three schools operating in the city of Cheste and learned about curricula designed to educate EU citizens at different levels, from pre-school to 9th grade. Children and teachers have also prepared a special program - dances from all partner countries in this project, children's games, competitions in knowledge of EU countries and their symbols, cuisine, etc.
