The Best School Magazine of 2017 Awards, or why not bring extra suitcase next time
For the past two years, our collective school newspapers - The OG Chronicle, OG NOTes and Krognika - have been recognized for top national prizes in the Best School Magazine in the Czech Republic contest. Because there is no alternative at present, we enroll our school newspaper into this "magazine" competition, but this hasn’t prevented us from taking the top positions in many categories. Our newspaper was awared 1st Place in Graphics, 1st Place in the Other Languages category, 2nd place in Content, and 4th Place overall. We couldn’t be prouder of our efforts!

Last week saw an end of this year’s first block- taught subject we offer our upper-gymnasium students in the course of their Social Studies programme. The subject was Introduction to Political Science and it was taught for over three and half days to both of our Kvinta groups.
