Na Osnovni šoli Sladki Vrh se je zaključil mednarodni projekt Comenius, v okviru katerega so gostili koordinatorje partnerskih šol in tri učence s ciprske šole, ki so se med drugim seznanili s cilji projekta, šolo v Sladkem Vrhu in krajem ter z našo državo. Kot so povedali na šoli, je koordinator projekta, v katerem sodelujejo s šolami iz Francije, Cipra, Turčije, Španije, Grčije in Italije, Simon Dragšič, profesor angleškega jezika, z njim pa želijo povečati dimenzijo izobraževanja s pomočjo sodelovanja šol po Evropi, učencem in učiteljem pa pomagati doseči in izboljšati določena znanja in spretnosti.

Comenius
V sredo, 13. oktobra, je v Sladki Vrh pozno zvečer pripeljal kombi iz dunajskega letališča. Pripeljal je tri učitelje in tri učence iz Cipra, ki so postali naši gostje. K meni je prišla Paraskevi.
Že takoj naslednji dan so se skupaj z nami udeležili pouka. Za vse udeležence, ki so prišli iz različnih mediteranskih držav, smo pripravili kratek kulturni program. Popoldne smo vsi, ki smo sodelovali v projektu, predstavili še svoje šole in države. Naši prijatelji so si za to priložnost oblekli tudi ciprske narodne noše. V petek smo se udeležili športnega dneva. Odšli smo na kratek pohod ob Muri, od Cmureka do broda in potem nazaj do šole. Ker nam je bilo vreme naklonjeno, smo popoldne pripravili kostanjev piknik pri Marku, za večerjo pa smo odšli na pico. Sobota je bila dan, ki smo se ga vsi zelo veselili. Zgodaj zjutraj smo sedli na avtobus in se odpeljali proti Piranu. Dan je bil kot iz škatlice, tako da smo res uživali v tem prelepem mestu. Popoldne, po odličnem kosilu v primorski pršutarni Kobjeglava, smo se odpravili še proti Ljubljani. Z Ljubljanskega gradu smo opazovali čudovito Ljubljano in njeno okolico, ki je že bila odeta v temo in lučke. Domov smo prišli zelo pozno, kljub temu pa smo, predvsem punce, komaj čakale nedeljo, saj smo imeli prost dan, ki je bil namenjen obisku Europarka, kjer smo na veliko zapravljali.
Naše druženje je minilo skoraj v trenutku, saj je bil tu že ponedeljek in naši novi prijatelji so se, skupaj z njihovimi učitelji, zgodaj zjutraj z avtobusne postaje odpeljali na letališče na Dunaj, kjer jih je čakalo letalo za polet na Ciper.

COMENIUS
On Wednesday, 15 October, very late at night, in Sladki Vrh came a car with 6 (this day still) unknown people. These were three teachers and three students from Cyprus, who became our guests. Students were staying with us, but the teachers were staying in the hotel. In my home came 14-year-old girl. Her name is Mikaella. The other girl was Paraskevi and the boy was Christhos.
Next day, on Thursday, the students came with to our school and we were having »normal« classes. For all people who came from eight different Mediterranean countries, our school and of course students prepared a short culture programme. In the afternoon, all the teachers and students, who were participated in this COMENIUS project, had a presentation of their schools and countries.
On Friday, we attended the sports day. It was a walk through our region. Because the weather was fantastic that day, we had a chestnut picnic, at Mark's home. On the evening, when it was the time for dinner, we went... Guess were? We went to pizzaaaaa house!
Saturday was a day, we have waited for from the beginning. Very early in the morning we sat on the bus, and drove to our seaside city, Piran. The day was like in fairytale, so we were really enjoying in this beautiful city. In the afternoon, after the delicious lunch we went to our capital city, Ljubljana. From Ljubljana's castle we were admired the view of Ljubljana and its area in the night. It was very beautiful. All those lights and everything. We came home very late, but we still couldn't wait till Sunday, especially girls, because the next day we went to biggest shopping centre in Maribor. That's was Europark. We went to SHOOOOOOPING!!
We spend a looot of money there. But we weren't sorry about that. On the very early Monday morning, the teachers and students from Cyprus, went to Vienna, where they had an airplane. So they went back to their home. Back to Cyprus. And that was everything about Comenius.
We were very sad because we needed to say goodbye, but otherwise we were very, very happy because we had a chance to meet each other. It was an interesting adventure. We made a real friendship here in Slovenia. And we can't wait till March, when we will go to Cyprus.
