On Saturday, 14 May 2022, in the Church of the Resurrection of Christ in Vienna, the Serb Educational and Cultural Association Prosvjeta Austria and the Association for Culture Word \u2013 Color \u2013 Tone organized a Poetry afternoon for children and adults, with a guest from Serbia, the poet Svetlana Spaji\u0107.<\/p>\n
The event, which gathered a large number of children and their families, was organized with the great help of the team of the Prosvjeta\u2019s Serbian Language School in Vienna.<\/p>\n
The musical framework was provided by Prosvjeta\u2019s Mali Hor (Little Choir) conducted by Vera Simi\u0107, while the program was presented by prof. Sr\u0111an Mijalkovi\u0107, the founder and long-term head of the school, who thanked especially Mrs. Jadranka Gross, who had initiated this program. Father Mihajlo Smiljani\u0107 greeted and blessed the present, wishing them a good mood.<\/p>\n
After Mali Hor\u2019s musical introduction, the children listened carefully to poems, asked curious questions, and then participated in the workshops on Cleanliness is half the health and Forest animal kingdom.<\/p>\n
After a break and refreshment, the best joint drawings were presented, followed by reciting of verses that the children and parents had composed spontaneously through play and laughter. After two hours, the participants had a hard time parting and saying goodbye to each other, wishing that this nice gathering would happen again soon.<\/p>\n
\u2018I am glad that our children are so creative, well-mannered, and that they can fully understand and enjoy poems for children in their own language! Our dear guest, Svetlana Spaji\u0107, inspired them to socialize, create and cooperate with their friends and families in a creative way. Such programs enable better and faster learning, and nurture family values and team spirit. I would like to thank our wonderful teachers Suzana Nedeljkovi\u0107, Ivana Milovanovi\u0107, Vesna \u0160piri\u0107 and Aleksandra Tanaskovi\u0107 for the excellent organization, and aunt Vera Simi\u0107 for the preparation of Mali Hor. Their long-term work with children in Prosvjeta\u2019s School is yielding excellent results!\u2019 said Mijalkovi\u0107 and added: \u2018This year we hope to form new Prosvjeta Schools in Austria, with the support of the Directorate for Cooperation with the Diaspora and Serbs in the Region and the Eparchy of Austria and Switzerland. We also hope that many of our citizens will support the schools and enroll their children, because educating children in their own language is the most necessary and most important thing for everyone in the diaspora!\u2019<\/p>\n
