About those who saved the world…

by Katarzyna Sosna

        Holocaust has been spoken a lot, but those who saved its potential victims seem to be forgotten. I’d like to present you a few people who, hazarding their own lives, rescued the others.
Jerzy and Irena Krępeć
Irena and Jerzy Krępeć were the heroes, as they hid the Jews on their farm. The Jews were employed there and earned money. Their children could illegally go to school together with village children. The married couple organized them fake IDs. They gave them all the necessary things, as food, clothes, accommodation and psychological support. Their neighbours knew about the hidden Jews but they didn’t bring them out and 30 Jews survived the war in this way.

'Hanysy' and their region

by Aleksandra Józefczuk

Bieruń is in Silesia, which is quite dissimilar to the rest of Poland. In Silesia people celebrate birthday but in the rest of Poland name day, but they are Gorole, we are Hanysy.
And we’ve got the coal –our blessing and course.

       Each of our project international meetings involves games and sports competitions. Are you aware that though, there is a wide range of sports disciplines, the number is still increasing? For example, in the Olympic Games in Tokyo (2020) five new categories are going to be introduced:
baseball (very popular in Japan), karate (with Japanese origins), skateboarding, climbing and surfing.
