Open house
On Thursday, 30 November, 2017, curious visitors, taking advantage of the Open House opportunity to see the school inside-out, flocked to BESST High School. Apart from seeing entertaining presentation by our Year 1, 2, and 3 students, visitors had a chance to attend one of the classes taught in English — Math, Biology, and Art and Culture, as well as lessons taught in Slovak — Slovak Language, Chemistry, etc. In addition to the possibility to talk to the principal and the teachers, the visitors had a chance to ask the students how they feel about studying at BESST themselves.
Annual letter writing marathon
High School students explored this issue of human rights today by getting involved with the annual letter writing marathon organized by Amnesty International. All classes wrote letters of support to people who have been incarcerated for standing up for their homes and dignity. The aim of the project is not only to raise awareness of human rights violations but also to put pressure on country leaders to reconsider their actions in relation to the abuse of humans in their country.
