Primary school “St. George” is located in a very nice village Uzdin in Vojvodina, which is 10 km away from Kovačica.
To Elementary School St George in the year 1935, the four-year school in Putnikovo was merged, which functions as such to this day. School in 1976 got a new building that is attached to the old building and the bilingual teaching is done in Romanian and Serbian languages.
The specificity of our school is multiethnic. In addition to Romanians and Serbs, the school is attending a lot of Roma students. Educational work is carried out in 15 classes with a total of 214 students and 30 teachers. At the school there is also an extended stay.
The total surface of school’s area is 2400 m2, including the building, garden, sports fields and green space. The school has a library for students and teachers with over 6500 books, a space for organizing exhibitions, gym, equipped modern classrooms and offices, and a multimedia classroom.
In our school, the achievements and successes of students are systematically monitored. Any progress and achievement of students are praised and promote outstanding achievements and rewards. The progress and success of students are followed at all levels of competition.
Students who win one of the top three places are rewarded with praise and a nice book because of their efforts and they improved themselves and their knowledge, and at the same time they promote the school in the best way. Especially noticed are students at the Republic Parade of the reciters, Republican contests in the Romanian language, history, biology, Serbian as a second language, the Republic Parade of choirs and orchestras and on the sports Olympics in table tennis.
In order to preserve and foster the traditional Romanian folklore, customs and songs, our students regularly participate in music and folk festivals.
The school is successfully cooperating with parents, the local community, as well as the Municipality of Kovačica. There were always generous sponsors who support the actions and activities of the school.
We try to systematically monitor and organize humanitarian activities in order to improve the social and material situation of students. This year our school is part of the DILS project “Education of Roma Inclusion”. We have a pedagogical assistant that helps them to have better and quality education.
International cooperation is reflected in long brotherhood with high school “Vlad Tepes” of Timisoara and the “Children’s Palace” in Arad, which provides an opportunity for our students to participate in music, art and literary events, share experiences and socialize.
We are very proud of the success of our school choir and orchestra which under the Bandmaster’s baton of Daniel Kec achieved significant recognition on the national level competitions.
