On Monday, 21 March, Savremena Gimnazija students, together with their teachers, visited the event Eco-awareness, organised on International Day of Forests by University Singidunum’s Environment and sustainable development studies.
In the course of the event a panel was organised with the following participants:
Jovan Memedović, a journalist and TV programme author 100% natural;
Predrag Jović from Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) ;
Prof Dr Jelena Milovanović, University Singidunum’s Environment and Sustainable Development studies professor.
Quiz Call of the Wild
After the panel, some of Belgrade grammar schools students had the opportunity to take part in the Quiz about Nature. Our students excelled in the quiz, and were awarded the trip to the Special Nature Reserve Obedska bara, which was a part of the Singidunum University field trip. The students who got the award were Aleksandar Kašerić, Minja Ćirić, Vanja Radunović, Teodora Pavlov and Nađa Pevac.
After the quiz, the best environment-related essay writer competition winners were announced and Savremena Gimnazija students were among the competition participants.
Planting trees to celebrate International Day of Forests
The last and maybe the most beautiful activity was the one entitled Trees of eco-awareness, during which the students of each school planted a tree to celebrate International Day of Forests.
We are glad that by participating in the event Eco-awareness, we demonstrated once again that by observing eco-friendly school principles, students, teachers and other school team members, through their daily activities, contribute to preserving the environment and raising awareness of the importance of activism in this field.
