Our students took part in a memorable three-day School in Nature programme at CŠOD Čebelica, where we stayed for two nights. From the moment we arrived, the children were impressed by the welcoming accommodation, the excellent facilities, and the delicious food, which they thoroughly enjoyed throughout the trip.

During our stay, we spent a great deal of time outdoors, regardless of the weather. Equipped with boots and raincoats, we explored the forest surroundings and learned through hands-on experiences in nature.

The programme was both varied and educational. The students gained valuable new knowledge about map orientation in natural environments and carried out a range of measurements using different tools in the forest. We also went on a longer hike, during which we discovered natural landmarks and learned more about the local area.

One of the highlights of the trip was the opportunity to observe animals up close and even handle them, which the students found especially exciting. They were also enthusiastic about archery, where they had the chance to practise their aim with a bow and arrow.

The evenings were just as enjoyable. The students loved the evening disco, and there was also plenty of free time for socialising, playing board games, reading books, or enjoying the playground.

The children also showed great responsibility in caring for their rooms, as tidiness was part of the evaluation. They were particularly diligent and worked together as a team.

Overall, our School in Nature experience at CŠOD Čebelica was a wonderful opportunity filled with learning, adventure, and shared moments. The students returned home happy, full of new knowledge, and carrying many special memories.
