1. Informing parents about the project
At the beginning of each school year in September a meeting of all parents with the headmistress and form tutors is organised. The aim of this meeting is to inform parents about the new school year schedule, priority tasks and to choose or renew The Parents School Board. This year we also announced our partnership in the international European Union Project – Socrates Comenius. The parents were told about general aims and activities planned for the 2005 / 2006 school year. We hope that all school society (pupils, teachers and parents) and also local community will engage into this venture.
In
September 2005 we started to realize tasks planned within the confines
of Socrates Comenius Project. Throughout the whole month students of all
forms with little help from teachers and parents were carrying out tasks
which certainly enrich their knowledge on: “Four seasons for

3. Project meeting in Manchester
James Brindley County Primary School – the hosts of the first meeting – greeted us warmly. The atmosphere of the meeting was really friendly. We’ll never forget our discussions, brilliant ideas, funny situations and all the people involved in the project.
It was very exciting to be able to get to know about the school, pupils and teachers. The children eagerly talked about their achievements and presented projects. We talked to the teachers about methods and planning their work.

The course of the visit was taken care of by three coordinators Odile Cyrille, Ruth Corrigan and the head-mistress Christine Ward. This all resulted in a feeling that language is not a barrier that cannot be overcome and joy of meeting such nice people, whose openness and friendliness will remain in our memory as bright lights on the map of Europe.
We’re looking forward to the next project meeting in Greece. Our school will be hosting delegations in October 2006.
