About Kölcsey Ferenc Secondary Grammar School Körmend In our
school there are about 160 students taught in 7 classes by 19 teachers. This is
a coeducational state school being the only secondary grammar school in
Körmend. The school is very proud of their talented and successful students. They have achieved great success in national and regional competitions (mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, foreign languages) and in sport events like swimming, basketball, handball or the Intellectual Olympics. Our school has also good experience in international cooperation. We have had several successful international programmes so far: · Socrates – student exchanges, environmental projects · Comenius – visits to England, Wales, France, Denmark, Portugal, Poland ·
Partner
town cooperation – student exchanges, visits to Germany and to The Netherlands We also consider
culture important: we organize varied cultural events like Students’ Day,
Chemical Theatre or The Day of the Hungarian Culture, foreign language events
and sporting events. They would know information about each other so they could prepare a „portfolio” about one another to find the differences and the similarities between them. They could get important experience in the use of their foreign language, and they could also discuss their learnt topics with their partners. At the end of every year students would take part in a video conference class, when they could speak to those who they have chatted through the year and discuss their experiences. As a result, they could present then what they have learnt about the cooperation and then they could evaluate their progress with their teachers. We are also planning to organise different activities together. Both towns have a castle with great history, we could invite each other to cultural events, like Europe Days, Körmend Days, or to sporting events. |
