National Anniversary of Independance in our school In our school we celebrated this day by organizing Independence Run- a competition between primary schools from our town- Sosnowiec. Idea of the Run was established before the II War in our district- Niwka. It was very important celebration in which all society took part. In 2000 teachers and pupils from our school decided to resume this tradition.

The celebration starts in front of the commemorative plate, dedicated Polish soldiers. We put flowers and burn candles.

Then, after the Run pupils, guests and participants of the run take part in solemn academy. Pupils from our Tradition Club prepare a performance to show Polish history during partition, when we have to fight for ourindependance. There is always a lot of acting, singing.
