Math Kangaroo in Kiskunhalas

On 17 March 22 pupils at Szent József were very excited at 10 o'clock. As our project partners in Czech, Poland and Romania, our best Maths students took part in this international mathematical competititon called Kangaroo. Here is the list of tasks and timing:

Class 2 _ 16 tasks _ 45 min

Cl 3-4 _ 24 tasks _ 60 min

Cl 5-8 _ 30 tasks _ 75 min

Here is the key:

The results are being put onto the organisator's site next week.

Math Kangaroo 2011 in Dub nad Moravou.

This international mathematical competition became a spring tradition in our school. This year 97 students took part and tried their mathematical knowledge. Generally, we can say that at lower categories the number of successful boys and girls was equal, there are both genders among lower categories winners. But at higher categories there was only one boy among the best participants. We have been observing this interesting fact for years. Although boys are usually supposed to have better mathematical thinking, in our school girls always get better results in this competition!

Here are the best results ( number of points ) at all categories:

Grades 2 and 3 ( 8 - 9 years old ) : 55 points.
Grades 4 and 5 ( 10 - 11 years old ): 77 points.
Grades 6 and 7 ( 12 - 13 years old ): 78 points. Here only students of 6th grade were among the best ones!
Grades 8 and 9 ( 14 - 15 years old ): 66 points.

TREES, BIRDS AND FISH

The school in Dub has been continuing in spring tasks of our project activity calendar. Children at the primary level and at the class for students with special needs focused on creating Art and Craft projects with spring topics. They created a collection of tree posters, 3D bird figures and 3D aquariums with fish. As usually, all the products are being used for decorating our long school corridors.

15 March 1848

Spring has come!

Every year people of Hungary have a public holiday on 15 March, children do not go to school and adults have a day off. On this day the Hungarian Revolution and War of Independence of 1848 is celebrated.

On the last schoolday before 15 March children have a special performance to honour our fathers who wared for freedom in our school. This year Class 4b organised the celebration nicely and movingly.

Earthquake and Tsunami hit Japan

Danuta --

I grew up in Japan. I’m accustomed to earthquakes. But nothing could have prepared me for this one. It was the first time I saw buildings in Tokyo actually sway back and forth.

I watched live TV coverage as the tsunami swept away entire communities. It was like a horror film, but these are real people – thousands are dead, thousands more are missing. In one city, nearly half of the population is still missing.

And now we're gripped with the fear of radiation from nuclear power plants. It's a real-life nightmare.

In the past, Japan has helped the World Food Programme respond to some of the worst disasters around the world. Now, when my country is coping with its own tragedy, I feel proud to stand united with Japan to help people in need.

I’m deeply grateful for the outpouring of support from all over the world. Thanks to the generosity of friends like you, in just 36 hours we raised all the funds we require for our operation in Japan. Thank you.

Amid the devastation left behind by the earthquake and tsunami, transporting goods is an enormous challenge, but families remain in desperate need of emergency supplies and WFP is providing its expertise to make sure those supplies are delivered quickly.

As the lead logistics agency for the United Nations in emergency operations, WFP has decades of experience in delivering food and other relief items in the most difficult environments.

It will take a long time to recover from this disaster. But, between the heroic rescue efforts coordinated by the Japanese government and the incredible support of the international community, I know we’ll get there.

Thank you for the role that you are playing.

Sincerely,

Yuko Yasuda
Japan Spokesperson

Post aus Deutschland

Liebe Schüler und Schülerinnen aus Polen und Ungarn,

Mein Name ist Silvia Roye und ich bin eine Lehrerin aus Halle. Das liegt in der Mitte von Deutschland, in Sachsen- Anhalt. Wir wollen gemeinsam mit euren Lehrerinnen und Lehrern im nächsten Projekt mitarbeiten. Wir freuen uns sehr darüber.
Ich unterrichte an einer Grundschule. Dort lernen die Kinder von 6-10 Jahren. Danach gehen sie an eine Sekundarschule oder an ein Gymnasium.
Wenn ihr mehr über uns wissen wollt, dann schreibt mir doch mal.

Liebe Grüße,
