British International School of Zagreb visit to Zagreb Zoo
The British International School of Zagreb has organised a visit to the Zagreb Zoo for its students to visit different animals and their habitats. The students could get to know some of the animals by looking through the fence or glass, but also up close by petting them. Some of the habitats were so vivid and full of rare animals that students took pictures and read the descriptions on every info wall. The weather was nice, so the British school also organised lunch in a nearby restaurant. With laughter and socialising in a nice environment, the students talked and described their experiences with their colleagues and teachers while eating good food.
Primary students presentation of the British International School of Zagreb
Primary students of the British International School of Zagreb presented their works that they had been diligently creating for the past 6 weeks in the library. On a pre-selected topic, they researched the material, extracted important information and then created a poster in order to better and more easily show their colleagues that they themselves had mastered the topic assigned to them. As it is a British international school, we could hear interesting facts about women throughout history, Great British people or Britons, space and the human brain. All this was researched by our diligent students, collected data and delighted us with a wonderful presentation. With a lot of new information and interesting events, the students exchanged ideas and created the impression of a real desire to learn the material and transfer knowledge to the other participants of this event. We will be honest in the description, so we can say that the professors learned some of the things for the first time at these presentations.
