Botanical Garden welcomes successful project members of Botanikiáda 2013

For the fourth time the clever pupils of the primary schools from the Prešov and Košice regions are meeting in the Botanical Garden of Pavol Jozef Šafárik University at Manesova street 23. For them biology is not only an educational subject but also a hobby. Together with their teachers they are participating in the three May courses of successful project “Botanikiáda” which gained a lot of supporters. In the Botanical Garden the 210 fifth formers will be solving different problem tasks from biology, whereas their teachers will complete the individual programme devoted to botany connected with the discussion on the enhancement of teaching of this subject field at schools. The first meeting in the form of cognitive and experiential morning took place last Wednesday (15 May 2013)  and the following two are arranged on 22 and 29 May filled with the plentiful program happening always in the time from 9.00 to 13.00 and the event enlivens also an actual exhibition of the butterflies.
Organizers and partners provided information about this interesting project to journalists on Wednesday May 22 at the press conference.
