Our school takes an active part in a lot of international projects. In December students of 12B (S. Tatevosjana, I. Zarickis) and English teachers (M. Barbašina, J. Mališeva) went to the UK (Gloucester, Asha centre) to participate in the international training course "Youth Life Coaching".

The aim of the course was two-fold:

• it was first for participants to understand themselves better and become aware of their own potential and goals in life;
• then, it was for them to learn the tools and skills that would enable them to help others to become active and more self-aware.

The course was based on non-formal education methods, including experiential learning tools, practical exercises and creative workshops. It contained, among others, sessions on non-violent communication and active listening, confidence building, self-awareness and relationships,as well as elements of artistic and physical expression as a tool for self-exploration.The coursealso explored our relationship to the outdoors and nature as well as to a healthy life-style.
