Poland Constitution Day and Feast of Mary, Queen of Poland

2010-05-03T11:50:00.004+02:00

3 May is Constitution Day in Poland and marks the signing of the Polish Constitution on this date in 1791. It is generally regarded as Europe's first and the world's second modern codified national constitution. However, the constitution was to last for just a year as Poland was then partitioned by Russia, Prussia and Austria. Banned during the partitions of Poland, it was again made an official Polish holiday in April 1919. After the 1946 anti-communist student demonstrations, May 3 Constitution Day lost support with the authorities, who replaced it with May 1 Labor Day celebrations; in 1951, May 3 was officially removed from the list of national holidays. May 3 was restored as an official Polish holiday in April 1990, after the fall of communism.

For the occasion state representatives and top brass from the Polish armed forces take part in celebrations in Warsaw - they attend a ceremony by the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

This year celebrations were limited due to the national mourning which has finished recently.

On 3 May we also celebrate the feast od Mary, the Queen of Poland. Main religious celebrations always takes place in Czestochowa. For Poles, the Black Madonna of Czestochowa is a fount of miracles. The Holy Virign was acclaimed the Queen of Poland in 1656, after Sweden's invasion of the country in 1655. For 40 days, as the Swedes surrounded the monastery, the monks prayed to the Virgin for deliverance. The siege failed, and the Poles subsequently drove the Swedes out of the country. In gratitude, the reigning Polish monarch, Jan Kazimierz, dedicated his throne and the country to "the Virgin Mary, Queen of Poland."
As for the painting itself - its origins are unknown, but it may date as far back as 6th century Greece or Byzantium. The icon arrived in Poland in 1382 with a Polish army fleeing the Tartars, who had struck it with an arrow. Because of the icon of Black Madonna, Częstochowa is regarded as the most popular shrine in Poland, with many people making a pilgrimage there every year.

A trip to the zoo

2010-05-02T17:35:00.006+02:00

Last week was a WEEK WITH SCIENCE in Gimnazjum nr 14 in Ruda Śląska. Students participated in various events. A group of students participated in a competition organized by the City Council for young ecologists and they won the main prize – a trip top Vienna! On 22nd April in our school third and second classes prepared some chemistry experiments for our younger friends. We had got a lot of nice ideas what to do. Class IIIA made a “storm in a tube”, others had got interesting experiments, too.
There was maths, physics and chemistry competition organized on 22nd April. We had 45 minutes to do 40 exercises. Some questions were quite difficult:-) Some other students went on a trip to planetarium and another group had a meeting with an expert – it was devoted to the topic of ecology. All these events made us think more positively about science!

World Book and Copyright Day

2010-04-23T19:52:00.002+02:00

23rd April is celebrated as World Book and Copyright Day. This yearly event is organized by UNESCO to 'pay a world-wide tribute to books and authors, encouraging everyine, in particular young people, to discover the pleasure of reading'. What's the connection beteewen 23rd april and books? It all started in Spain as a way to honour Miguel Cervantes (he died on that day). The day is also the anniversary of the birth and death of William Shakespeare. Various events are organized to celebrate this day. In our school we had a radio programme and we prepared an exhibition in the hall.

Although not all of us are bookworms, we agree with Ch. W. Eliot who wrote: "Books are the quietest and most constant of friends, they are the most accessible and wisests of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers".

Learning animal idioms

2010-04-19T20:02:00.005+02:00

As April is devoted to the topic of TOP ANIMALS we thought it would be good to learn some animal idioms. To remember them well we illustrated them and created some teaching aids. It was interesting to see the similarities and differences between English and Polish idioms. So in Polish you can be as stubborn as a donkey while in English - as stubborn as a mule. In Polish you are advised not to buy a cat in a poke - and as you know - the English suggest not buying a pig in a poke.

Tests taken: 14
Age: 14
Sex: Female
After we've filled the questionnaires about computers, we found out that we rarely or never play computer games, but if we do, we play them for one hour or less. If we can’t play we don’t mind or care about it. Some of us said that we switch on computer when we get home, some after they do their homework and some in the evening. To the question about our favourite PC game, most of us said none, some said Soliter and some Sims. We all agreed that we use our computers also for emails, chat, homework, music, films and newspaper or magazines. In the end we found out that we’re not addicted to computer games, neither are we their biggest fans... by Nika L.

Some Polish Easter traditions

2010-04-05T15:12:00.008+02:00

Some time ago we published quite a detailed presentation about Polish Lent and Easter traditions. Today I'd like to present two customs typical to our country. One of them is related to Holy Saturday. On this day we go to church with so called "święconka". It is a basket containing some Easte foods, like bread, ham, meat, eggs, salt, horseradish, an Easter Lamb (a sweet one) and preists bless them. Than on Easter Sunday we share this blessed food among family members.

Another custom is related to Easter Monday. It's called śmigus - dyngus or Wet Monday in Polish. On this day girls are being oured with water by men. At least it used to be so in the past. Nowadays, men often simply sprinkle some perfume on women's heads, which is in fact sometimes worse then being poured with water as you then feel the mix of e.g. 6 perfumes on your head:-)

World Theatre Day

2010-03-28T22:53:00.002+02:00

27th March is celebrated as World Theatre Day. It was created in 1961 by the International Theatre Institute. Here's the fragment for this year's message by Dame Judi Dench: "Theatre is a source of entertainment and inspiration and has the ability to unify the many diverse cultures and peoples. Theatre has the ability to make us smile, to make us cry, but should also make us think and reflect".

So let's think over the role of theatre in our lives. If you want to visit our School Drama Club website, go to: http://www.kolotgim14.hekko.pl/

Benefits of the project

2010-03-20T23:46:00.001+01:00

This project has given us a lot of interesting moments and I can say that every day when I open my post, I always start with the Ning. Czech students have learned so much from the activities, they have learned about six countries, they have learned about languages,national exams from our partners´schools are a good material for English lessons and I can use them in many classes. The other benefit is the fact that we are going to have reader´s badge from the next school year and the children will be encouraged to read more. Thanks to the Slovenain school. It will be very strange when the project finishes but I believe that it will never finish and our community can go on. Thank you, all the people who are involved.

Spring, where are you?

2010-03-11T13:07:00.003+01:00

Even though it is March, Slovenia is covered in snow again. There were snow blizzards yesterday and it fell up to one metre of snow in some parts of Slovenia. In Ljubljana we got "only" 50 centimetres of new snow. They even had to close some schools because the wind was blowing up to 200 km per hour in the coastal part of Slovenia. And what about you? Are you as fed up with winter and snow as I am?

Polish group - back to school after winter break:-)

2010-03-01T22:42:00.003+01:00

After two weeks of winter break we came happily back to school:-) During our meeting we tried to recognize the titles of books our Czech, Bulgarian and Swedish friends prepared for literature competition. It wasn't always easy:-) We also worked with our TOP10 DICTIONARY! it was really interesting to compare our languages, fins similarities and differences. Some foreign words and phrases seem quite funny for us:-) But we realize it's the same with Polish language when you listen to it!

1st March in Bulgaria - Happy Baba Marta! Честита Баба Марта!

2010-02-28T18:47:00.000+01:00

The Bulgarian legend associated with Martenitza

It was long time ago in year 681. Khan Asparuh, the man who established our country, was coming towards our land and stopped near the Danube River. He needed some news about his mother and sister, who were on the other bank of the river.

Khan Asparuh decided to send a message with a swallow. His warriors tied the message with the white wool.

During the flight the swallow has got hurt and the blood dropped onto the wool. That’s how his mother and sister got the message – in red and white.

The great tradition began. It was 1st March. And now every year on this day we wear martenitza in red and white, because these colours are symbols for health, happiness and prosperity.

1st of March in Greece

2010-02-28T07:43:00.000+01:00

The ancient Greeks used to celebrate the beginning of the most beautiful season of the year, the spring!
In modern Greece there are many habits related to the beginning of the spring. Their aim is to expel the winter, because it is related to “evil”.
The first day of March the kids use to make bracelets from white and red cotton thread, which is called “martis”, to beware of the intense sunlight. These bracelets use to keep with them till the morning of the Easter Sunday. Then, they use to hang them on a rose tree and they are waiting to see the first swallow, which is spring's messager.

Two medals for Polish sportsmen today!
