The Polish /Scottish Saturday School aims to develop and strengthen a feeling of national pride and awareness . The school aims to increase the pupils’ knowledge and understanding of Polish history and culture , not only through traditional teaching , but also through participating in a variety of national celebrations and festivals .

One such special occasion was the 219^th anniversary of the signing of the Constitution of the 3^rd May .The older pupils under the direction of their History teacher Mr Lukasz Paprocki prepared a moving presentation, on the background of historical occurrences accompanied by poems.

Amongst the invited guests was the prospective Parliamentary candidate Mr Jim Ferguson , who stressed the importance of our school within the Polish community in Inverness.

We are grateful to the children and their teachers who worked hard to prepare for this national occasion.

We thank all our guests for sharing in our celebrations.

I was invited by Ms Zosia Fraser to attend this special event which encouraged Polish young people to understand their Polish history and culture and maintain their national pride and awareness, although many miles from home.
