With strenuous, but cheerful preparation we welcomed the
first Night of the book (23rd of April) which showed as very entertaining. At atrium of our school
we have edited various exhibits, posters and books. On some of the posters, on
the theme of violence in relationships, students of different professions have
been working during the day and so turned school hours in the fun and constructive.
In the morning we were visited by children from kindergarten Bedekovčina with
whom we played, drew a bike and learn the rules of cycling, and in the
afternoon we hosted students of the elementary school Bedekovčina. All the
activities we have tried to promote the book and reading as well as various
other arts as visual art, film and music. Listened to the verses of famous
poets set to music, watching two films based on literary works, were looking at
posters and drawings displayed in the atrium.
With good food prepared by the staff of the school, the
evening turned into a real poetry evening, outdoors and under the stars, with
lyrics and music. In this book Nights enjoyed about 50 students and staff of
the school and about 90 guests. Their impressions will do that next Night the
book even more attractive.
