WHY CHOOSE OUR SCHOOL?

First generation - Experiences of our parents and students

“The idea that we, as parents, had regarding our girl’s education basically involved the adoption of a good model of education through play, the acquisition of work habits and the desire to learn. To accept learning as a nice obligation, as a form of entertainment and not as torture. In addition to school activities, I also planned extracurricular activities for my child, sports and piano. In conversation with Ivan, I realized that her idea of educating children is similar, except that children get all curricular and extracurricular activities in one place with good teaching staff, and that time at home is time for family. So I decided to enroll my daughter in the Private Elementary School “Mihajlo Pupin.”

“After considering different options regarding primary education, my husband and I decided to enroll our firstborn in the Private Elementary School “Mihajlo Pupin”. Although we both acquired our knowledge in state institutions, we realized that the world for which we prepare our children requires something more from the individual than what the current system in public schools provides. First of all, it is of utmost importance to us that the number of children in classes is limited to 15 because this will allow teachers to adequately implement the program and dedicate themselves to each student in accordance with his or her pace of acquiring knowledge. In addition, we appreciate the efforts that have already been made to prevent peer violence through the policy of enrolling only students in lower grades, as well as through concrete procedures to solve such problems in case they occur. And most importantly, the school has a fantastic team of staff who are fully focused on children and their well-being. They give the pleasant environment in which the school is located the warmth that every child needs in order to be able to grow, develop and reach his full potential. We are looking forward to the upcoming school year and all the opportunities that the Private Elementary School “Mihajlo Pupin” will provide to our son.”

“We were intrigued by the Private Elementary School “Mihajlo Pupin” through a conversation with the founders. We made the decision specifically because of the teacher and the principal, because we like their approach to working with children, which we saw in the workshops that the school organized. I also really liked the school setting. “We like the fact that the kids come from a good family.”

CREATIVE EDUCATION

In our work, we use a variety of creative and interactive learning methods.

We apply STEM education

It encourages initiative, develops curiosity and strengthens the power of observation in children. Through this approach, we introduce children to the key principles of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, preparing them for future challenges and empowering them to think critically.

We nurture kinetic learning

Through physical experience, movement and sensory perception, children acquire new knowledge faster and deeper and develop an understanding of the world around them. This method is especially present in mathematics and Serbian language classes, as well as during outdoor activities, enabling students to acquire practical and lasting knowledge through play and movement.

We're spending time in the school garden.

A school garden is an outdoor classroom where theory and practice are combined. In it, students are introduced to natural processes through practice and play, learn cooperation and patience, and acquire healthy lifestyle habits. Also, the activities and tasks of the school garden program build important social skills in children. They teach them responsibility, communication, empathy, teamwork, and leadership.

We have a drama section

Through the drama section, we revive Serbian historical figures and bring our history and rich cultural heritage closer to children in an interesting and interactive way. In the process of interpreting characters and stories, children also develop the skills of analyzing texts, situations and characters, which further strengthens their analytical abilities.

Frequently Asked Questions by Parents

We open the school doors at 8 a.m., and the extended stay lasts until 5 p.m.

We have a smaller group of students, i.e. 15 students per class. In this way, we can devote quality attention to the whole class, as well as to each child individually. Our goal is to monitor the progress of each child individually and react quickly, either to notice that someone is slower to absorb the material, or to discover a special talent that needs to be developed. In addition, smaller groups, up to 15 students, contribute to the creation of better and better connections between students.

Children in our school have four meals, breakfast, lunch and two snacks. We try to make meals healthy and nutritionally rich, in order to provide them with enough energy for the day, but also to develop good habits and love for healthy eating from an early age.

Yes I do. For all children who are part of our school, we have provided uniforms that are adapted to their activities and provide maximum comfort. Also, children are provided with all the necessary materials, including books and supplies, so parents don’t have to worry about these things.

Transportation from home to school and back is provided for all students. Depending on the wishes, parents can take advantage of this opportunity or independently organize transport for their children.

During the school week, children participate in a variety of activities, such as science experiments, drama sections, folklore, etiquette, piano for beginners, and sports grounds. They also attend scientific and cultural events. The Night of Museums, the Researchers’ Night, the Book Fair and the celebration of the European Mobility Week are just some of the regular events we visit. Also, we regularly organize excursions outside the city, where children explore natural sights, visit historical sites and participate in educational workshops, which contributes to their overall development and connection with the natural beauty of our country.
