Last field course for Savremena’s graduates – destination: Novi Sad

On Wednesday, 10 May, a field trip was organised for our graduates. The destination, like the previous school year, was Novi Sad – the European Capital of Culture for 2022.

On their way to Novi Sad, the students visited the Krušedol Monastery on Fruška Gora, as well as Sremski Karlovci, where the First Serbian Grammar School was established. In Novi Sad, the students explored Petrovaradin, tested their skills and physical fitness at Adrenaline Park, and then used their free time to enjoy the beauty of Novi Sad and explore the city for the needs of their project.

Namely, before the trip, the students were given tasks that required skills they will definitely need in the future. They had to organise a three-day visit to Novi Sad and its surroundings for an assigned group of tourists according to their profiles and allocated budget. To successfully complete the task, they needed to analyse the tourists' profiles and what Novi Sad can offer in terms of culture and history, as well as entertainment and cuisine. The most important part of the task revolved around the budget and developing financial literacy and money management skills, which will undoubtedly be useful to students, especially if they move away from their family home for studies.

We are confident that this last field trip provided students with new experiences and taught them valuable lessons in resourcefulness, perseverance, and most importantly, friendship.

I am extremely pleased and proud to be the parent of a Savremena student. During my first encounter with the school management, when I asked about my child’s potential enrolment, I saw how much love, enthusiasm and professionalism you put in your work. I was impressed by your approach, ideas and methods. I couldn’t believe something like this existed in our country! It doesn’t take long to realise that this is a school you would recommend to everyone. Creativity, modern technology, top-quality education, and most of all, the humaneness that can be seen throughout the school, make it truly different and worthy of its name – Savremena Gimnazija. With such an approach, the success of this school and, consequently, our children’s success, is unavoidable. Congratulations! Jelena Đorđević, Andrija’s mum
