The Grammar school in Mostar was built in the distant
past in the year 1893, when it began with its
work. That is very important date in the history
of Mostar. With construction of grammar schools
there were made main differences all across our
country in the way of education and our Mostar
Grammar school was very famous and an original in Bosnia and
Herzegovina, because all generations gave many
great intellectuals. The students of the Grammar
school were winning many first places on the
National championships in different school
subjects and disciplines. Today, after everything
that we have been through, we are trying to
remain the long tradition of the Grammar school
in Mostar, because we are its successors. Our
school is the most current school in the town of Mostar and 350 - 400
pupils attend that school because we don’t have
our own building anymore.
However,
although we are not very roomy there are still
many different sections in our school, souch as
drama, young journalists, poetry, eko-section and
other
Drama section
includes about ten pupils and they are always
hard working because they are one of the main
roles in many school shows. The pupils think up
different showes all by themselves, and that is
what makes them even better. Young joumalists
section is active, too. It is publishing the
magazine ”Gimnazijalac” (pupil of a grammar school) which contains different subjects from
many areas such as language, literature, poetry,
school activities, music, film, sports, etc, etc.
In our school
pupils are also very active in different projects
such was the project ”ClVITAS”. On that
project we worked very hard so we came to the
National championship where we won the first
place in category ”Visual presentation”.
There are also competitions in different school
subjects such as Physics and Mathematic, where we
are also very successful.
We, the pupils
of the Grammar school, are hoping that the old
building of our school will soon be reconstructed
and that we will soon be educated in that kind of
building. We will try to continue the long and
envious tradition of the Grammar school in Mostar
and the future generations will give many
excellent pupils and intelectuals, too.
