We have just begun a new project called The Way We Are. The aim of the project is to make students from around the world closer to each other. By exchanging e-mails, students will have a closer look at evryday life of their peers, their routines, habits, likes/dislikes, their environment and culture. For the time being, we've got two partner schools; one from Colorado, USA and one from Brazil.Interested? Contact us at: speakup@epals.com.

And, if you want to see what our students learnt about their e-pals from these two countries, follow the link: http://speakup-thewayweareproject.blogspot.com

I went on Rudnik. We played football, tennis, table tennis and went swimming. I saw a forest house, a square, a park, a mine. We had a nice time. Rudnik is a beautiful mountain.

Why do people choose to use slang when they can use other words?

First of all, I have to admit that I have found myself in this line, and indeed, why do we all use slang beside all those appropriate words? For example, why would we rather say “bad egg”, instead of “bad person”, or why do we say   “cool” which is absolutely the best example?  I’ve got an explanation.

Christian Orthodox church doesn't know about the institution of Santa Claus. There  are Saint Nicolas and Father Christmas, though. The tradition of giving gifts is assigned to Saint Nicolas, who is celebrated on 19th December. Giving gifts for Christmas can be connected with the gifts Christ received from the wise men. If you want to know more about this, read the article under the TRADITIONS AROUND THE WORLD.

We would like to hear what you've got to say about this.

Here are some messages our students wrote to Santa. You can also leave yours if you join us.
