1M Science Day – Exploring Plants and Gardening

On Monday, 15 May, grade 1 students had an amazing day filled with plant experiments, researching the parts of plants and their roles, and planting flowers and vegetables in the school’s garden. The students eagerly engaged in various experiments, planting seeds and observing their growth. They also learned about different plant parts and their importance through research and hands-on exploration. The highlight of the day was when they got to plant their own flowers and vegetables in the school garden, working together with joy and enthusiasm.

Renovation of Dunajska Cesta

Due to the renovation of Dunajska cesta, which is expected to last until November, there may be increased traffic in the vicinity of our school. We urge you to exercise extra caution in road traffic and ask parents to have a separate conversation with their children about this. The official notification from Ljubljana City Council explaining this can be found here.

Best wishes,

Labour Day

International Workers’ Day or Labour Day is celebrated 1 May each year. This is a tradition that continues in more than 60 countries. It is the day that commemorates the struggles and gains made by workers and the labour movement. Labour Day has been a national holiday in Slovenia since 1946.

Did you know that the first Labour Day in the USA was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City? Did you know who started the celebration of Labour Day? Most sources state that Matthew Maguire was the father of Labour Day. He was a famous union leader of the 19th century.

World Book Day

World Book Day is celebrated around the world each year on 23 April. It has been organised by UNESCO to promote reading, publishing, and copyright since 1995. The MYP students dedicated an English lesson to the day during which they presented their favourite books and tried to encourage their classmates and teachers to read the books as well. The 8I students also read poems from around the world and created one pagers in which they reflected on what they read. Everyone learned something new and we hope that the entire school community will spend part of the spring break reading a good book.
