End of the school year is always exciting both for pupils and teachers. It‘s full of different activities and experience outside the classroom.
At the beginning of June all students of elemantary classes with their teachers visited the Curonian Spit. There were two educational activities in the Sea Museum: one group was getting knowledge about the penguins while the other group learned how to be safe being in the sea. Afterwards everybody went to the beach – it was a great impression for those seeing the Baltic sea for the first time.
After a few days the 7th grade had a chance to visit Žemaitija region. The trip took 2 days and with the help of three teachers children had a full variety of activities: a tour in the Oginskis‘palace, interactive exposition of the national park, underground missile base in the forest of Plokštinė, and hike in the capital town of Žemaitija – Telšiai.
Pupils of the 6th grade together with their teacher were exploring another region of Lithuania – Aukštaitija. Walking on foot, riding a bike, making food on the fire, swimming and enjoying miracles of nature – that was the plan to end the school year.
