Let's celebrate Europe Day together !

Today we had an online meeting. We celebrated the Comenius Week and the Europe Day. Students from Turkey and Poland prepared circular cakes and had “a small party” during the videoconference. The Turkish students presented their song about eTwinning. We had an opportunity to ask and answer questions about our school life. It was great time ! We hope it was first but not the last meeting.

Comenius Week 2011 with our project

From 2-9 May 2011, schools are invited to celebrate European school collaboration through Comenius week activities. Comenius National Agencies, eTwinning National Support Services will also participate, so be sure to join in the celebrations together with schools and colleges all over Europe for Comenius Week 2011.

eTwinning during the Open Day in our school

On 29th April our school celebrated Open Day. Those who visited our school had an opportunity to find out about our eTwinning and Comenius projects. and educational offer of our school. The students from our town and nearby villages visited the classrooms, watched chemical and pshysical experiments, different presentations and shows.

Our class wanted to show how Mathematics can be more interesting by taking up the hands-on projects such as curve stitching line designs and patterns.
A geometric shape is drawn on the stitching surface, and then a needle and thread are used to create a series of straight lines running back and forth from one side of the shape to the other. Each side of the shape is pierced several times with the thread, creating a series of connections between it and a neighboring side. As the lines intersect, the suggestion of a curve is created at the intersections of the line, with the curve appearing more realistic the more lines there are.

The Mathematical curve stitching

These patterns were prepared as a part of eTwinning Project Around The Circle/Around The Wheel during the Open Day in our school. It was amazing fun for all the students.

Anna Vasa School from Poland

Anna Vasa School Complex no 1 includes a lower (gimnazjum) and higher (liceum) secondary school. It was named after the Swedish princess in 2003. At the moment it houses about 170 students in seven classes at the gimnazjum and about 330 students in fifteen classes at the liceum. Students come from the town of Golub-Dobrzyń and nearby villages. Their social and economic background is varied. Golub-Dobrzyń and its environs are a typically agricultural region. Ever since the lower secondary school was founded, our students have been achieving one of the highest final exam results in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie province and the students from upper secondary school obtain above average results on matura exam. During the last few years our school has made a big progress in new technologies. Interactive whiteboards, electronic diary and the Fronter Platform have been introduced in our school.

Our students gain knowledge and skills in classrooms with modern equipment, such as multimedia overhead projectors, interactive whiteboards, and video and stereo equipment. They have the chance to develop their interests in all kinds of subject clubs. Both schools organize meetings with interesting people, co-operation with university science clubs, workshops, domestic and foreign excursions, and enable the students to take part in international projects, such as eTwinning, Comenius, and AIESEC.

The teenagers realize their passions in the school choir ‘Cantus’, in the ancient music band ‘Capella Antiqua’, at painting workshops, and numerous subject clubs devoted to the media, the theatre, recitation, photography, the European Union, playing chess or discussing films. The pupils of the liceum create their ‘School Newspaper’, which is part of Golub-Dobrzyń’s local weekly the ‘CGD’.
Both students of the gimnazjum and of the liceum actively participate in the student governments.
