Czech) and our Gymnasium. Pupils, students, teachers from all these three schools (and some other people) go eat to the same dining hall, that often results in large queues – you can spend up to 15 minutes just waiting for lunch which is not always delicious, because it is made for a large number of people. You can choose up from 4 options – one is for people with gluten-free diet plus you can choose a drink and take a soup. Usually there is some milk or some water to drink. After you finish waiting, you just take place at a table, each table is for four people. When you're finished with your food, you just take the tray with empty (not every time) plates and give it to the employees – they know what to do with it. Then you can leave the hall, go home or whatever you want to do. (D.B.) SPECIAL DAYS IN OUR SCHOOL Suit Up Day On 13th October our school for the first time took part in the International Suit Up Day. This year it was the 8th annual Suit Up Day ever. It is connected with American sitcom How I Met Your Mother and Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris). (You don’t have to be fan of HIMYM to suit up .) On this day you are supposed to wear suit everywhere and do everything in it because suits are AWESOME. A lot of students came in a suit and it was really -------. We are definitely going to repeat it next year . Barney Stintson wearing a suit. Halloween When Halloween is nearby in our English lessons we learn about history of this holiday. And when it’s already here we CELEBRATE!  Every year on 31st October we have a lot of fun on English and this year was a bit different. Students across the whole school could wear costumes and participate in the competition where they could win a sweet prize. “Some of their costumes were really scary!” Another special activity was to prepare a trick (dance, joke, headstand, backflip,…) and show it to the rest of a class. “And watch out! If you don’t have something to show us, you will pay! Chocolate is the best but we take pretty much everything that is sweet :3.” “Oh I’m sorry, that was the Witch. I should probably tell her that Halloween is gone for now.” After that games came and contests in teams. Do you know ‘bobbing for apples’? We did something more yum-interesting and it was ‘bobbing for donuts’. This and a lot more. It was really a nice day and we all had a good time .
