Our logo won!

Our project Comenius „Folk in culture“ has its own logo.

The students from all the partnership schools took part in a competition and created logos.

2 students from our school A. Urbančíková (1.A) and F. Dehaty (2.D) sent their proposals.

On 7 December the students – participants of the visit to Poland voted for a logo and 40 students chose the logo made by Alexandra Urbančíková (1.A)

I think that this trip was very good but I have one negative comment – in Poland we didn´t have any disco. Please change it on next trip.

Family was very nice and friendly, I was satisfied with accommodation and the first dinner was great!

The guided sightseeing in Krakow a bit fast but interesting.

I had mixed feelings after seeing the museum of Hasior.
