About Project Citizen Partnershop Activities Student Exchange Our School

 

     
   
   

We organized the student exchange with the support of the Centers for Civic Education. In November, 2002 a few American students visited our school and were guests of our students' families. Apart from working on projects for civic education, they also got to know Croatia better.

 

On March 12, 2004 a few of our students are going to the USA as part of the exchange program. Below you can see the program which has been prepared by our hosts.
