Last Friday Bright Horizons International British School had its annual Sports Day. School houses (Jupiter, Mercury, Saturn and Neptune) had a chance to compete against each other in many exciting sports activities. Among the most interesting disciplines were – egg on a spoon, sitting volleyball and, of course, football and basketball. The competition took place both indoors and outdoors. The most exciting competition during the Sports Day was making and performing your own t

Last week, Y3 went on a hiking trip to Medvedgrad, accompanied by their form teacher Ms Šarina, PE teacher Mr Krznar and two parents. On their way up the Sljeme Mountain, pupils saw a small waterfall, met many obstacles such as fallen logs and trees they had to climb over, and even met a stork that came to drink some water near the trail. Children had no trouble climbing to the Medvedgrad fortress, where they discovered lots of interesting legends and facts about Medvedgrad a

You can ask our Year 8 and Bright High pupils! This was a year of fantastic opportunities for our Year 8 pupils, as well as our secondary school ones!

Not all Christmas stories are the same. Christmas is not just about a man wearing red and giving presents. There are lots of cultural traditions like Christmas markets, Krampus from Austria, La Befana the witch from Italy, Yule Lads from Iceland, and unique foods like sheep’s head in Norway or Bûche de Noël in France. Alongside these, there are widespread customs like decorating trees, singing carols, and leaving treats for gift-givers, often with regional twists on Santa Cla

Holidays are always filled with delicious food we share with out loved ones, and a lot of time is spent watching Christmas movies, sharing family stories, reading some picture books under warm blankets, and when we get back from the break - we have so many stories to tell each other! Our Cooks

As you probably know, we have winter shows for families and friends every December. Sometimes pupils sing, sometimes dance, sometimes, do a skit and sometimes recite poetry. This is a rare thing, however . our Year 2 wrote their very own rhymes for the show. Last year they did phonics, this year they learned how to rhyme and do poetry. This is what they came up with, on their own, in pairs and with a little bit of help from their teachers Ms Hollo and Ms Ashley. Some rhyme, s
