On Tuesday, 12th February, 3M very happily accepted a gracious invitation from an architect to come to his office to learn more about architecture, as part of their current unit of inquiry about buildings. The architect gave a briefing about architecture, and invited questions from the students. Following this, there were some videos showing how architecture is born from nature, and a discussion, accompanied by a gallery, about the history of architecture going back to the very basics of house design, which are still prevalent in many parts of the world today. The pupils were then set a task, to design and plan their dream houses. There were many original, abstract and creative ideas including, many swimming pools, shops, and a Llama City. The students and teachers alike, had an extremely enriching and informative experience.
Thank you for a wonderful day!

On Monday, 11 February, we arrived in Planica and settled into our rooms. Lunch was already waiting for us. After lunch we went to the ski slope and practised some turns. In the afternoon we had a short lesson on FIS rules and in the evening we went for a night walk. Then, deserved rest.

On Thursday, February 7th, 4M students had a Science day. They conducted several experiments about magnetism, electricity, sound waves and static electricity. After investigating, for example, why a balloon sticks to a wall after being rubbed on someone’s hair or what is necessary for a light bulb to shine in an electrical cycle, students presented their posters.

On Wednesday, 6th February, The MYP pupils had a winter Sports day in the mountainous Gorenjska region of northern Slovenia. Pokljuka, a world famous venue for Biathlon and cross country skiing, played host and served up a winter’s delight, consisting of sledging and, of course, the aforementioned skiing. The pupils and teachers alike reveled in the thrills and spills of sledging, and the grit, determination and skill, required to complete the cross country circuit, all set against the backdrop of a glorious sunlit landscape and an ocean blue sky. A new friend was also made with a long haired auburn dog named Ben. A wonderful winter’s day will be fondly remembered.

On the weekend of 2 and 3 February, our school hosted the Regional Round of the World Scholar’s Cup competition. Students from many primary and secondary schools in Slovenia, Austria, Italy, and Serbia, collaborating in teams of three, competed in debate, writing, and some other disciplines. On Saturday, we hosted the challenges in our school; on Sunday, the event was held at the Cankarjev dom convention centre, where students were also able to show their talents in the showcase.
33 students from our school participated in the event, and achieved great results – these will be announced in the coming days.
Congratulations to all the students, their mentors and the organisers of the event, Ms. Katarina Lovenjak and Ms. Irena Šteblaj.

There was some rain today, so we spent most of the day indoors. The sky cleared just for a time so the students could enjoy some sports activities outside. At the design workshop the students carried on with the planning of the 3D model of the Erasmus logo. There was another event that brightened the day, the birthday celebration of two students. Everyone sang, ate birthday cake. and exchanged gifts. The teachers also went for a guided tour through school.

We also saw some ancient artifacts that were discovered in the area. Afterwards, we went to Acropolis where we saw the Odeon of Herodes ancient stone theatre, the gateway to Acropolis (Propylaea), the Temple of Athena and Parthenon.
