Remote Belgrade

German language students, accompanied by their teacher Gordana Djordjevic, celebrated the European Day of Languages on September 25, 2019. The project by Stefan Kaegi and Jorg Karrenbauer and the famous Rimini Protocol company Remote X was also performed in Belgrade under the name Remote Belgrade or Belgrade remotely. Stefan Kaegi is a Swiss author of documentary theater pieces and radio shows. As we toured the city, we were navigated by a voice similar to the one of GPS navigation. After two hours of walking, which ended on the terrace of the Kombank hall, we wondered how predictable our behavior is, how much we are influenced by technology, music, groups, how much freedom we have to make our own decisions …

Let’s prepare for the school trips!

Sixteen years of sharing our team spirit

The 2018/2019 end of year school play and graduation ceremony of our 16th generation of Rudjer Boskovic high school students was held on 19th June 2019 at the Madlenianum Theatre. The performance started of with our high school choir, followed by speeches from our Head of School Ivana Vukmirica Bacanovic, who shared the experience of the previous school year with the guests and Dragan Stulic, our General Manager.

After that we enjoyed the play Lajanje na zvezde (Barking at stars). The actors were inspired, spontaneous and relaxed. Music was a big part of the play: Teodora Vukovic on the piano, Naum Ivanic on the guitar, Marija Ignjatic sang  Under the shining stars , Tea Polimac and Naum Ivanic sang a duet Devojko mala. The dancers were tremendous.

Our Head of school gave out the diplomas and the best friend award Ahmed Isak went to Djordjo Matic.  The ceremony ended with a speech by our valedictorian, Milan Bulajic.

Our guests were able to go through the 32nd issue of our school magazine Sokolske novine.

As usually, The “Sokolska diploma” (The Sokolska award) was awarded to the most successful students. The play “The Highschool musical” made this evening more memorable and the performance of the drama and music club thrilled the audience and caused a lot of fun and laughter. At the very end, we enjoyed the ceremonial march of our graduate students and greeted them with a huge round of applause and fireworks.

 

Trace of Russia in Belgrade- cultural orienteering

We have explored Russian cultural impact through cultural orienteering, on May 22. Our students were impressed by the Russian Home. The hosts took us sightseeing. We visited a library that is the second largest (outside the territory of Russia). It contains 64,000 books. In the lobby you can see the bust of  Alexander I Karađorđević and Nikolaj II Romanov. An exhibition of Russian contemporary painting was set up in a hall where different ceremonies were held. The second point – the monument to the Romanov looks powerful. The Russian church, soured behind the Church of St. Mark, was the logical end of our path. We had a great time.

Planetarium

We had the opportunity on May 20, 2019 to travel through the Universe in a mobile planetarium that was placed in our gym at school. It was an unusual school class, and the studens, lying on their backs, were surrounded by stars and planets, that were moving, crashing, disappearing, and re-appearing. The students saw a movie on the Solar system and saw the collision of a collision galaxy. Students talked with astronomers and physicists about research in the field of astronomy and the possibilities of life on other planets. A truly unusual experience and a small introduction to the magical world of astronomy!

Observing Earth Day

The aim of the workshop was to actively involve students in the simulation of a small community’s life in a decadent forest. Students have had the opportunity to practice traditional ecological knowledge and team work in order to understand the role and significance of biodiversity in the ecosystem. The program was divided into three parts: a forest secret, a forest bath and a forest link in which students were asked a lot of interesting questions, such as: What do we eat, what is eating us? What protects us and what threatens us? The pupils were also introduced to the concepts of sun therapy, bathing in the forest air, through which showed the inextricable ties of man and nature.

Cognitia Libera

On Saturday, May 11th, in our school was held the 14th presentations of essays in the field of philosophy, called Cognitia Libera. This year, eight students from different schools and towns entered the finals (Sremska Mitrovica, Zrenjanin, Kikinda, Vladičin Han, Novi Sad and Belgrade), and the topics they chose are: “Od Agore do Instagrama”, “Šta (ni)je umetničko delo”, I “Čovek izmeđuprirode I slobode”.

In a great atmosphere of discussion and exchange of ideas on the subject, all students showed high level of maturity in thinking, as well as enviable philosophical knowledge. The winner of the competition was a pupil of IV Belgrade Gymnasium Tatjana Petrović, who was slightly better than the other competitors. Members of the jury this year were our teachers Nena and Ivan Šurlan, and the chairman of jury was Predrag Krstić from the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory.

The student of our school Bogdan Košutić won the second place at the International Literary Competition “Šantićeva reč 2019”.
