SCHOOL SUBJECTS

As a school community we consider that moral attitude and values instilled in our students are very important for people.

Dignity, freedom, responsibility are fundamental principles of the activity of our school’s patron which is the social movement „Solidarity”.

Education in the spirit of values

We organize excursions which has a purpose: Getting to know the patron of our school. While visiting Gdańsk – the cradle of „Solidarity”, or the Museum of Poznań June -1956, you cannot forget about dignity and people’s freedom, as well as the responsibility for ourselves, the surroundings, our Homeland and our image in the world.

While singing the school anthem our students pledge: „To serve the God and Homeland, to join hands over violence, to carry hope over violence”. These are the meaningful words we often refer to. We consider they oblige us to take care of a good atmosphere at our school.

School holiday on 11th November.
