Erasmus project

We are very proud that our school - Savremena High School, is participating in the two-year Erasmus project - GARDENS. In addition to our school, the project involves the "St. John" High School, the "Archipel des Saintes" High School from France (Guadeloupe), nutrition experts from the University of Sassari, the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO NEST BERLIN EV) from Germany, and the company "Hypex Srl" from Italy.

Raising awareness about the quality and diversity in youth nutrition

The aim of the "GARDENS" project is to educate young people, especially high school students, and explore various aspects of nutrition. This includes studying proper food preparation, with a focus on the importance of selecting quality food. The project also involves educating about the proper way of consuming food, emphasizing the importance of diversity and balance in nutrition by determining the optimal number of daily meals.

Organic food as a key to health: Encouraging awareness of pesticide-free nutrition

Emphasis is also placed on the use of so-called "Organic food", or food that has not been treated with pesticides, the use of which would reduce the nutritional properties of food and increase potential toxicity due to the presence of pollutants. In this way, all project participants have an important common role, which is to participate in the collective awakening of awareness about the importance of proper nutrition principles, both among students and their teachers and parents, who are directly or indirectly involved in this process.

Promoting healthy lifestyles through international student collaboration

Thanks to the immense dedication of the school principal, Tatjana Koluvija, and the School Project Team, our students will have the opportunity to exchange their experiences with students from EU countries and thus make a valuable contribution to the development of Nutrition Science.

This project actively involves the school's expert associate Uroš Veličković (school counselor), as well as teachers Maja Merdović (English language teacher and project coordinator) and Stefan Erčić (biology teacher).

We believe that, in the coming period, we will justify the trust placed in us as participants in this important research project, and that our students, alongside their peers from France and Cyprus, will make a direct contribution to popularizing healthy lifestyles.

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
Contemporary in any sense of the word, our school offers functional knowledge and quality preparation for tertiary education in Serbia and abroad. Implementing modern and creative teaching in the classroom, where the teachers’ pedagogy and students’ performance are aligned with the highest academic standards for the high-school finals, our school develops linguistic, mathematical, scientific, artistic, cultural, technical and ICT competence, which is a prerequisite for further education and professional development. Teaching is supported by the interactive whiteboards and educational software, whereas practice exercises research and critical thinking.
