On Friday, 6 November, our PYP4 and PYP5 students went on an educational trip to Rijeka, combining a cultural experience with hands-on STEM activities.

Charlie Chaplin at the Puppet Theatre Festival

The day began with a puppet theatre performance. As part of the Puppet Theatre Festival in Rijeka, students watched the play Charlie Chaplin. Afterwards they had the chance to meet the actors and even took a few photos with them.

STEM KRUG at the Centre of Technical Culture

After the performance, we headed to the Centre of Technical Culture (Centar tehničke kulture) for a STEM workshop called “STEM KRUG”. The students took part in a variety of fun and educational activities, including Bee-Bot, mathematical puzzles, gravity experiments and Sphero ball activities.

The students were very involved in every activity, and the morning passed very quickly. When the workshop finished, they returned to school with our organised group transportation.

Learning Beyond the Classroom

Trips like this give students the chance to experience culture and science first-hand, and to connect what they learn in the classroom with the world around them. A big thank you to the Puppet Theatre Festival and the Centre of Technical Culture for welcoming us.
