Students winning their way to Strasbourg

On Friday 29th November 2019 five students from the DCG participated in Euroscola competition, which took place in House of EU in Ljubljana. Competition offers young contestants a virtual tour of Europe and gives them an insight into the function and work of the European Parliament.

The competition consisted of two parts: a test about EU and a debate about current EU events and problems.  Three students, Gašper Kovačič, Max Davidović and Josipina Julija Petrovič,  competed in the test. The average score at the end was 15,5 points. Mark Loborec and Lina Leskovec were the candidates for the debate and they did splendidly, winning 18 points. The DCG team came in third, winning a trip to Strasbourg! The experience was amazing and for some of us, our first in this field. We were all very happy, when the results were announced and everyone is looking forward to the trip!

Marjeta Hočevar, teacher of Geography, and Tadej Rifel, Ph. D., teacher of Religion & Cuture, were in charge of this year’s Euroscola competition. /Josipina Julija Petrovič, year 2/
