Children from different countries aged 14-16 live and study here for a month and a half. All our students come here after participating  in Math competitions in their own countries and in different mathematical contests. We are proud to say that new Newtons and Einsteins are among us.

2.        The school is located in a quiet historical village. The complex consists of several buildings. The central and the highest building in the campus is our administrative centre. Lecture halls, chemical lab, the library and the computer center are all here too. To the right of the central building, there are students’ accommodations. All the rooms are nicely furnished, and there is a satellite TV in the students’ lounge. To the left of the central building there is a students’ café. Just behind it one can see an old building made of red brick. It used to be stables, but nowadays sport equipment like bicycles and boats are stored here.

3.        All students have breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the students’ café at 8.00, 13.00 and 18.00 correspondingly.  Lectures start at 9.00 and last till 13.00. After lunch the students work in teams on their projects from 14.00 up to 16.00. After that they have a wide range of various activities to choose from sport games on the sport ground, drama lessons, TV, music performances and so on. The day rounds off with disco or national dances. Students should be in their rooms by 11.00
