NEF ‘13 Centuries of Bulgaria’, through its session on Bulgarian native language, supported the ‘School Newspaper’ project of ‘This is Bulgaria’ Language and Cultural Centre in Milan, Italy.
Implemented mostly in an online environment, ‘School Newspaper’ is accessible outside school activities, with some of its issues also offered in paper form. Children from all classes engage in its implementation, through developing individual and collective publications or by publishing personal works.
In the context of the project, pupils work on several topics, using a variety of journalistic genres: information notes, reports, interviews. At the same time, they create designs and layout and acquire skills in reviewing and editing text. In this way, pupils express themselves in their preferred areas, becoming acquainted with classical and contemporary Bulgarian literature, and with their favourite Bulgarian authors, taking interviews from them.
