RENOVATIONS

As part of Ljubljana’s energy efficiency renovation plan, our building II will require reconstruction work until the end of 2017. During this period there might be times when it will be difficult to enter school (other entrances might be used). We will also do our best to ensure that all lessons will be undisturbed and that safety is ensured. If you need any other information about this project, please contact Mrs Loose at Mestna Občina Ljubljana, who is responsible for energy management.

In a reconstruction of a 100 year old classroom they also participated in a workshop where they created cuneiform on clay tablets. What a day!
