Our small projects

Lately my high school club members decided that we should spend more time together, so we could be more connected and the spirit will became more informal. That’s how they came up with small project called movie night. Movie night cost us nothing but can do a lot for our club to work better. All you need is a projector and a laptop, a place where to stay and some dinks or TV food, which anyone can supply. Most of technical stuff can be provided by our youth center so all that was left to us to get were some great movies.

So during our winter holydays we organized two movie nights one on Sunday, which was after the scheduled meeting and second one was on Thursday. Both of them were a great success and visited by most of our active members.

So first Saturday during our winter holydays was movie night Saturday and the second one was a lan-party Saturday. Because previous lan-party, which was organized by our youth center, was very well visited by high school students, we decided that we are going to try and organized it every two months.  So we made a decision who will take care of organizing and just did it again like the youth center did it last time. Because we were also a big part of it we already knew how to do everything, so if this event will happen every two months that should be a problem for us.

Winter school of creativity

After a long time, I finally found the courage to write again. Last week in February were winter holydays here in Slovenia. I don’t know if you remember, but each holydays we prepare a creativity school in our youth center. So it was now. Winter school of creativity lasted for three days.

Because the project was near carnival, we were doing masks on our first day of school. We did them from balloons and glued paper. And later we painted them together with elder people in local home for elder. 

The second day we went outside and built some snow castles which we later also painted with homemade paint.  We ended up with riding on bags downhill. The last day was more of a sports day. We went to the gym and prepare a simple polygon for children, made two teams and did a little competition which one is faster around it. Than our EVS volunteers from Spain showed us their traditional sport “human tower”.  

But this wasn’t the end with children, workshops continued also in the next day as a guitar class. On Wednesday we also had a traditional carnival for children in our town center and I was there as a security.
