On Wednesday, April 21, all PYP students went hiking to Šmarna Gora. They all enjoyed the hike and were very lucky as they also had sunny weather.

On Friday, April 16, grade 1 hosted a guest. We invited Mrs Tina Starec Klobasa, a teacher from the Slovenian department. She brought her kamishibai and told us a story about a bear who lost his hat. It was almost like being in a theatre. Thank you Mrs Tina for being a part of our current unit about words, stories and communication.

MYP students enjoyed a diverse and active language-based cultural day on Tuesday, April 13. They had workshops that catered to every learning style. From tickling their imagination and visual learning, they were engaged in a stop-motion animation workshop with alternative story endings. You can view their animations here. To satisfy the performers in them, they were able to enjoy a dramatisation of a well known Slovenian folk tale Martin Krpan. Last but not least, we could not let all the hard work go unrewarded, so students prepared some sweet snacks in the cooking workshop, which were inspired by Hensel and Gretel as well as The Three Little Pigs. The language acquisition team is very proud of the students’ products, and we are already looking forward to next year’s topic!

​On Wednesday, April 14, 5M students had a collapsed day in school. Their work focused on analysing how MYP students deal with stress, their stressors, their consequences, and what kind of actions they take to fight against it. Even though students were working hard, they enjoyed, had fun and learnt a lot.

Students of 6M have been reading Roald Dahl’s autobiography – Boy. They were learning about his interesting childhood and shocked by how many times the headmaster beat him with a cane. They wrote a letter in Dahl’s mother’s name complaining to the headmaster about this harsh punishment. Here are some of their letters.
