Dear 3M Community,

I am writing to inform you that 3M will have a collapsed day, instead of regular lessons, on Wednesday 15 January.

The title of the collapsed day is Reading Maps, and it will take 4 lessons.

Snack and lunch will follow thereafter as usual.

The students will need their pencil cases and are welcome to bring compasses with them if they have them at home, but they are not obligatory.

Some of the lessons will be spent outside, regardless of the weather conditions; therefore, please make sure the students are dressed appropriately and have spare clothes in case of rain.

On Tuesday 14 January, our kindergarten will have a special Cultural Day all about music. The first part of the day will take place in the music classroom where the children will be singing songs and playing Orff instruments. After this we will move to our kindergarten classroom where we will play musical bingo. Additionally, we’ll get creative by making little instruments from everyday materials.

n times of global climate change and an increasing awareness of the need to protect our beautiful planet, the duty of fostering tight communities increases. Only together we can adjust and really work for a more sustainable future, in which we use fewer material resources and focus on achieving goals; these goals are connected to our values, relationships, wellbeing, and empathy for the entire living world. For example, during the flooding of Slovenia in 2023, we saw how local communities helped and supported each other, as people were connected and knew their natural environment.

Bearing this in mind, we will focus on investigating the meeting places of the modern urban world and the opportunities they give for forging relationships and building communities. We have invited a special guest from Australia for an online conversation. Ms Zala Volčič, a Slovenian born Monash University academic, honoured with a top national teaching award, will help us look at this topic from the perspective of the media, which is her primary research field.

The students will, therefore, be engaged in research and creating meaningful digital content connected to communities, all in the Christmas spirit, of course.

The collapsed day will be on Monday 23 December and start at 08:20 then finish at 13:00.

Ms Katarina, Ms Lojzka, Ms Sonja

Dear Parents,

We are delighted to announce that our 7th grade students will be participating in a Winter School in Nature, taking place from February 3 to February 7, 2025, in the beautiful alpine setting of Kranjska Gora. During this exciting week, students and teachers will be staying at the Hotel Alpina, conveniently located right next to the ski slopes.

The primary goal of this program is LEARNING TO SKI! For students who are already skilled skiers, this is a fantastic opportunity to further enhance their technique under the guidance of certified ski instructors. Beyond skiing, this Winter Field trip is a wonderful chance for children to strengthen bonds with their peers, become more confident communicators, and develop a deeper sense of empathy and care for others.

We will briefly discuss what we expect to see, and depart from school. We will travel by public bus. The students will experience a lesson from the past and what school life was like more than a hundred year ago. After the visit to the museum, we will have snack and  return to school by 12:05. The afternoon programme, co-curricular activities and lunch will take place as usual.

Kayaking and Canoeing on The Ljubljanica river

On Monday, September 11th, all MYP students will go to the Kayak and Canoe Club in Ljubljana, where there will be professionals who will show them the basics of kayaking and canoeing. Students should come to school at 8:10, and at 8:40 we will take the bus to get to their facilities. There will be three activities (kayaking, canoeing and team sports activities) between which the students will interchange. Students need to bring with them:

- swimsuits

- a towel

- shorts

- T-shirt

- sports shoes for water or an old pair of sports shoes

- water bottle

- cap for sun

Bring some extra sports clothes with you since you will most probably get a bit wet, so you can change there. Students must not bring any money, mobile phones, or other valuable things with them on the sports day.

Students will take snack with them in the morning and lunch will be available at school as usual. We will be back at school at 13:15.
