The National Museum

As part of their PYP transdisciplinary theme Who We Are, Grade 5 students visited the National Museum, where an exhibition dedicated to medieval Serbia gave them the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the history of the Serbian people.

During the visit, students learned about the arrival of the Slavs in the Balkans, the development of the medieval Serbian state and the significance of the Nemanjić dynasty.

Through historical artefacts and museum exhibits, they explored how people lived in the past, what they believed, which values they upheld, and how rulers and historical events shaped society.

This educational visit encouraged students to make connections between historical events and the development of culture, identity and social values, while gaining a better understanding of how the past influences our understanding of the present.
