School Library Night

The Mikes Kelemen High School Library enjoys the Hungarian Teacher Librarian Association's initiative to celebrate the International School Library Month on the night of 24th of October. .  
Our ''ingredient'' to this celebration was the dominoes made of books.
We established national records by using 712 books in the dominoe.
It was very hard, but the joy and the enthusiasm helps us to win.
We created a short videoclip which reflects the atmosphere of the event:

The Library is Ours!

At last, on 9th of Mai, our 1st grader students conquered the Mikes Kelemen High School Library!
They knew the most of the letters, that's why it wasn't any problem for them to become our readers when we celebrate the Europe Day. 

During an interactive program our students met our library, the rules of the library, and they have the opportunity to show their reading skills. At the end of the program they lent books and received gifts from the librarian.

Our children were very happy that they become members of the Mikes Kelemen High School Library's reading community. We thank you to our schoolmasters Kákay Csilla, Zaláni Mária, Kató Zsuzsannna and Balogh László for the cooperation!
