March 2019 - Weekly.

The International Days project will see the children researching and presenting information about life in different countries and cultures. 

We all live together on a tiny planet with nowhere else to go and we don't always understand each other very well. International Days is a chance to learn something about how other people do things and why they are different or the same as what we know from our cultures. How do they write? What do they eat? Do we already know any of their words?

Each week will feature a different country and we will look at how countries and their cultures are grouped geographically as well as specific aspects of their culture.

During the last 3 days of January, we held our annual ski course at Skalka Family Park on the western edge of Ostrava. The weather was perfect and the effort put in by the kids was fantastic to see.

Everybody improved their skills noticeably over the course but more importantly, the kids pushed themselves to get better. For some with previous experience, that meant going faster, turning harder or a first taste of the big hill. For others it meant putting on skis for the first time and learning a whole new set of skills just to stand up.

For everyone it meant stepping way out of their comfort zones at times. There were plenty of falls and quite a few tears but once again, nobody quit in frustration. As always, the kids showed a level of determination that is a joy to see. Long may it help them to overcome their fears and improve at every challenge they face!
