World Book Day in grades 1-3
April 23 was World Book Day, but in our school we decided to celebrate it longer, for a whole week. On this occasion, DaVinci Primary School students took up the challenge of reading a book or a poem and recording a video in order to promote reading among their peers. Our children know that “reading books is the most beautiful game that humanity has imagined” (W. Szymborska) and they want to share this knowledge with everyone.
St. Patrick’s Day – memories from grades 1-3
Today we remember St. Patrick, which we celebrated on March 17. On this occasion, students from grades 1-3 took part in a special challenge, which let them introduce as much green color as possible into their lives. For this purpose, they prepared appropriate costumes and props, and even made an occasional decoration. Everything, of course, in the presence of good humor. See the effects of their celebration!
Earth Day challenge in Da Vinci
22nd of April is Earth Day but when should we celebrate it?
Everyday!
We use our planet everyday, not only on the 22nd of April. Our planet is our life. How do you imagine life without Earth? Can you?
It’s impossible!
This is why we should think about our planet everyday in our daily activities.
Look how our students help our planet to survive. They recycle, use reusable bags, energy-saving bulbs, hybrid cars and more! They also prepared a video. Check it out on our Facebook!
How will you celebrate Earth Day?

From the Canvas to the Camera – art in 7th grade
Our Year 7 students did a fantastic job bringing paintings to life as a part of the All About Photography Visual Arts project. They used their imagination and creativity to recreate works of artists such as Zdzisław Beksiński, Rene Magritte, as well as a beautiful Mughal painting, Portrait of A Princess. The current circumstances did not stop our students from being creative; they took their photographs in their homes and it’s surroundings, using clothing and objects accessible to them. The photographs not only came out visually interesting, but also pay homage to historically renown artworks. A huge Well Done to all!
Leonardo da Vinci – our patron’s birthday
Leonardo da Vinci, a Renaissance man of many talents, was born on April 15th in 1452. He also is a patron of our school. We remember him primarily as a brilliant painter, but he was also a sculptor, architect, inventor, mathematician, philosopher … the list here is really long.
On the occasion of the anniversary of his birthday falling today, our students have prepared a special board introducing this unique character. You will find on it his most important works and a collection of information from his biography. See for yourself!
