Project meeting in Příbram
Term: 11 - 15 November 2013
Project meeting in Příbram
In the second week in November
our school hosted a group of five students and one teacher from our ACES
partner school in Žiar nad Hronom. The whole meeting had a clear topic of diversity
and we tried to find similarities and differences around us. Students from the
class 2.C Markéta Kořínková, Matěj Pajma, Martina Truhlářová, Simona Venkrbcová
and Alice Jechortová accommodated their Slovak friends in their homes and
together with other project members Lukáš Žatečka, Tereza Rysová, Monika
Zoubková and Míša Pohanová took care of our partners for the whole project week.
On Tuesday we visited Prague, Czech students prepared and excursion on the Royal
Way and presented basic historic information about sights in our capital city,
Prague. On Wednesday we spent whole day together at school. Slovak students visited
lessons of accounting, economics and English and could compare the level of
these subjects in the Czech and Slovak Republic. On Wednesday afternoon the regional
students´ firm trade started at Business academy. On the first day numerous students´
firms come to Příbram and present their companies to a committee. Thanks to the
project meeting our colleague from the Slovak Republic Alexander Frič was a
member of the committee and evaluated the presentations, level of manners,
clothing and spoken presentation in Czech and foreign language. On Thursday
morning, the students´ firm trade was officially opened in the Little Castle of
Přibram by the head of our school RNDr. Marcela Blažkova and after that making
business at stalls could have been started. Students´ firms from Žiaru nad
Hronom also had a stall here and therefore all visitors could try, if they are
able to understand Slovak language and they could also see the offer of foreign
firms. After lunch, we showed our partners the Mining Museum in Příbram which
is an integral part of our city and after that we met at our final dinner. To
sum up, our meeting was short but very nice and inspiring for all of us.
