The first time Poles stood on the top of the podium
was in Mexico in 1974. Another medal - this time
silver - Poles brought from Japan in 2006. Poland
has participated in 16 out of 18 finals . The next
tournament in 2014 was organized in Poland. For
the second time the Polish national team won the
title of world champions. Brazil was defeated by our

Achtste Groepers Huilen Niet
It is a Dutch movie. It says the story of a girl - Akkie. She
loves playing football. She and her class take part in a
competition. Before the competition, Akkie comes down with
leukemia. In spite of sickness, she is full of energy. Her
parents and friends support and visit her in the hospital apart
from Joep.
Movie has got a great plot. There are funny and sad moments.
It shows the story of the ill person’s life. Watching it helps us
to change the way of perceiving the world. The actors and the
director gave us a great advice upon life.
Achtste Groepers Huilen Niet is worth spending two hours to
watch it.

Fashion
Nowadays, high boots (above ankles) are fashionable in
Poland. They are comfortable and pretty. They are not
cheap, but perfect and useful in autumn.
There are so many colours you can choose from: white,
pink, blue, brown, black, orange or red. They cost about
100zl and you can get them in shops like: CCC, deichman,
zalando or on the Internet shops.
I highly recommend it!
I have got them, too.

Hurried Games - Bad Games?
Now, when the November flood of the most hyped up games is
coming, we’ve got a moment to think about the products, which we
desire. Everybody is waiting for one or more new features and
certainly there are no two persons, who want the same. All of the
players usually need something different. And developers try to give
us as much as they can and as fast as they can. The word “fast” is the
most important in the previous sentence. If they issue a game faster,
they will earn money faster, and they can work on the next games. In
all of this there is one “little” mistake. They usually forget about the
quality of products. Anyway, let’s start enumerating how many games
were the total failures because they were made in a hurry: the
Battlefield 4 net-code has been fixed one year after the premiere,
Need for Speed: Rivals still crashes 3 times per hour, Assassin’s
Creed III has a lot of bugs and 6 parts of Call of Duty looks pretty like
one game. Nowadays, developers often postpone premiere dates in
order not to destroy the whole reputation in one moment. Why did they
need so much time to realize that people prefer refined and optimized
games, without so many bugs and crashes? No one knows, but we
should believe that the good times will come in the near future.

Cars
In the world there is over one billion cars - mainly in the USA and
China.
Cars in Poland are very different. They are mainly a make-overs of
Asian and European cars.
In the twentieth century in Poland there were a lot beautiful cars
like Siren, Fiat Toddler or Trabant.
Nowadays, in Poland you can very rarely see some old-fashioned
cars.
Motorization is still developing for the better . People try to make
cars as environmentally friendly as possible. Currently they are
creating thousands of models of cars.
There were and still are a lot of beautiful cars.

My hobby is...
My hobby is Majorette. I like it a lot. I practice it on Wednesdays
and Thursdays for one hour. During trainings we learn new steps
and tricks. We use a special equipment. My instructor is very funny
and friendly. I really like her. We take part in professional
contests and competitions. I’m interested in it for two years. It’s
great fun for me and I like my team.
This is my team. I'm behind the two girls on the left.

In this corner we will present beautiful
places and marvelous curiosities of
Poland.
Słowiński National Park
There are amazing dunes in the Słowiński National Park.
Dunes are sandy hills piled up by the wind. The environmental conditions affect different
shapes and sizes of the dunes.
Little Poland (Małopolska), endowed by nature with a huge amount of interest, has one
remarkable curiosity: the only desert in Poland. Located west of Olkusza, stretches
between the towns of Klucze, Chechło and Błędów. The origin of Błędowska Desert is
not entirely clear. The first theory involves the construction of the desert as a result of the
application of sand and gravel in the ice age.
Another hypothesis suggests that human activity has contributed to its creation. From the
thirteenth century on, people cut down the surrounding forests as they needed to build
silver and lead mines. And there is a third theory: a long, long time ago there was the
devil, who flew over the land with a huge bag filled with sand. At some point it bumped
on the top of the church tower and the spilled sand created the desert.
Cis Henrykowski
A specimen of the species tree yew, which is the oldest tree in Poland. It grows based on
the house. Its age is estimated at approx. 1250 years. The tree was damaged during a
hurricane in 1989.So no wonder the forest in Poland - in the nearby New Czarnow, near
the power plant "Dolna Odra" growing unique natural curiosity - "Crooked Forest,"
although some also use the name "Forest Fairytale". It is a cluster of about 400 deformed
pine trees in the area 1670m2, growing in 22 rows.
The view formed by these trees is amazing.

The interview with Nadiia and Ece :

then I thought that I want to help people and teach them. And I really like to travel and meet
new cultures. So that’s why I wanted to take part in this program.
Nadiia: My friend invited me in this project like 3 years ago. I was really interested in travelling
and taking some new experience for myself and I’m really proud that I’m here. I want to know
other countries.
KS: Do you want to visit other countries?
Nadia: Of course!

Ece: Before or after I met you?

KD: What are the differences between Poland and your country?
Ece: Firstly, I can say – the weather because now in Turkey it is like 30, 32, 33.Secondly, in
Katowice I couldn’t see any people on the street. In Istambul it is really crowded. Of course
the food is different than in my country. I think that’s it.
Nadiia: The differences are not big but maybe in religion. Because you’ re catholic and we’re
orthodox. We have many alikeness: language, food. But I can’t see many differences.
KS: Do you like polish food?
Ece: I haven’t tried much but let say a bit.
Nadiia: Polish food is the same like Ukrainian.
KS. Thank you for your answers. We’re very grateful for your help.
Ece: Thank you very much.
Nadiia: Thank you. Me too!

Ukraine
It is a country in the Eastern Europe. Ukraine is bordered by Poland, Belarus, Slovakia,
Hungary, Romania, Moldova, the Black Sea, the Sea of Azov and the Russian
Federation. The capital of Ukraine is Kiev.
From 2014 Ukraine is the country associated with the EU.
The view of Ukraine is mainly associated with steppe and uplands. In the west of the
state there are The Carpathians, and on the Crimea- Crimea’s mountains.
The castle - Martins Nest is the best place in Ukraine. It is a castle on the rock. It is
really amazing.
Turkey
(Turkish Republic) The country is located in the Asia Minor but also in Europe. The
capital is Ankara. The Turkey from the north is bounded by the Black Sea, from the east
by Aegean Sea and Sea Marmara and from the south by Mediterranean Sea (in Turkish
language it’s White Sea). Turkey is bordered by Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Georgia,
Greece, Iran, Iraq and Syria.Tourism is the quickest growing branch of economy in
Turkey. In 2012 Turkey was sixth the most happily visited country in the world.The
main resorts are the town by the Aegean Sea and Mediterranean Sea, but also Istanbul
and Cappadocia and the ancient cities of: Troy, Milet, Efez or Izmir.I think the most
beautiful monument in Turkey is the Sky-blue Mosque in Istanbul. This is the best
example of the “classical span” of islamic art in Turkey.

European Language Day!
On Thursday, 23rd of October in our school took place the European
Language Day.
Every class was very well prepared for it.
The representatives of the classes chose one month ago a piece of paper with
the name of one of the European countries for presentation - Wales,
Germany, Spain, Ireland, England and Scotland.
We were watching the presentations, listening to the traditional songs,
attending a show of the best Spanish TV, cinema and sport stars and we were
learning a lot about each country’s language.
On the next day teachers chose the best presentation.
First place won 2a class - Spain and 3a class - Wales
Second 2b- Scotland
And third 1a- Germany
There was no fuss about who has won, as everybody knew it was the great
work and the splendid fun that mattered.
The Cat’s Day!!!
In our school on 17th October takes place one of the most important moment in life of
every lower secondary school pupil.Every year first class pupils celebrate the so called
Cat’s Day, which is a kind of the school’s baptism of fire.Older classes are dressed up as
black cats, with painted moustaches, attached ears and tails.This year, me and my best
friend had the pleasure to be the organizers of the Cat’s Day.Our younger colleagues
were racing in drinking milk, rolling knitting wool and painting cow blindfolded.
After this the winners was… 1b class!
At the end, a boy from our school showed us, with his friends, a presentation of their
rollerblades skills. Jumps, salts, slaloms and another acrobatics stunts was made a great
impression on us.Everybody liked it – the first classes were happy to happily undergo
their hazing, older friends with pleasure watched the initiation and skaters show, which
was amazing.I’m sure that this day we’ll remember long time after 
