The next planned activity is a visit to Mostar by Turkish students with the aim of active language learning within the ordinary, everyday teaching process.
Na poziv Ministarstva obrazovanja okruga Istanbul općine Bahҫelievler i Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi škole, u periodu od 19. 10. do 23.10. 2017. godine, Nastavničko vijeće Druge gimnazije Mostar boravilo je u radnoj posjeti Republici Turskoj. Cilj posjete je izgradnja prijateljskih odnosa i planiranje buduće međusobne saradnje bratskih škola Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi i Druge gimnazije Mostar. Saradnja naših škola počela je 2016. godine posjetom direktora škola iz Hercegovačko-neretvanskog kantona Istanbulu, nakon čega je uslijedila posjeta direktora istanbulske škole gospodina HuseyinaArslanturka i grupe učenika našoj školi u maju prošle godine. Ovim projektom predviđeno je podržavanje saradnje, bolje upoznavanje historije i kultura dviju država te razmjena učenika u cilju lakšeg učenja jezika za što postoji velika obostrana zainteresiranost.
Ubrzo po dolasku u Istanbul upriličena je posjeta školi Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesitokom koje su nas domaćini zadivili svojim gostoprimstvom. U holu škole nas je dočekala poruka dobrodošlice napokretnom led displeju: „Dobro došli dragi prijatelji iz Druge gimnazije Mostar". Školski holkrasile suizložbene postavke među kojima su centralno mjesto zauzele ratne fotografije iz Bosne i Hercegovine i likovni radovi učenika posvećeni našoj domovini a posebno liku i djelupredsjednika Alije Izetbegovića. Veliko iznenađenje dočekalo nas je u školskoj biblioteci gdje su roditelji učenika predstavili kulinarsko bogatstvo turske kuhinje pripremivši, u našu čast, tradicionalni turski ručak.U popodnevnim satima je uslijedio bogat kulturno-umjetnički program u kome su nam učenici i profesori prijateljske škole svojim pjesmama, plesovima i muzikom još jednom zaželjeli dobrodošlicu.
Pored škole domaćina, njenog direktora, profesora i učenika u program naše posjete bili su aktivno uključeni predstavnici političkog života irukovodećih struktura u obrazovanju koji su u sklopu zajedničkih večernjih druženja promovirali značaj buduće saradnje. Dogovoreno je da će se saradnja naših škola u budućnosti razvijati uz obostrano zadovoljstvo razmjene iskustava, učenja jezika i razumijevanja zajedničkog kulturološkog koda i posebnosti Bosne i Hercegovine i Republike Turske. Sljedeća planirana aktivnost je dolazak turskih učenika u Mostar u cilju aktivnog učenja jezika u sklopu uobičajenog nastavnog procesa.
Škola domaćin u saradnji sa općinom Bahҫelievlerse potrudila da nam pokaže što više kulturno-historijskih znamenitosti Istanbula i na taj način približi svoju kulturu, historiju i tradiciju čime su naš kratki boravak na Bosforu učinili nezaboravnim. Bratskoj školi Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi upućujemo riječi najdublje zahvalnosti na dobrodošlici, srdačnosti i gostoprimstvu koje su nam priredili. Posebno se zahvaljujemo neumornom, nasmijanom direktoru škole, našem Husi, kako smo ga od milja „pod mostarski" nazvali.
Being invited by the Ministry of education in Istanbul community of Bahchelievler and Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi school, in the period of 19th October to 23rd October, the teaching staff of Second Gymnasium Mostar went on a study visit to Turkey. The aim of this visit was to build friendly relationships and to plan the further cooperation between fellow schools Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi and Second Gymnasium Mostar.
The cooperation between our schools started in 2016 through a visit to Istanbul by school directors from Herzegovina-Neretva Canton. After that we were visited by the director Mr Huseyin Arslanturk and a group of students in May last year. The purpose of this project is to support cooperation between schools, to get more familiar with the history and culture of these two countries, to support student exchange and thus enable students to learn language easier, for which there is a big mutual interest.
Upon our arrival to Istanbul we went for a Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi school visit where we were amazed by their hospitality. In the school hall we could see a welcome message in Bosnian on the mobile display, saying: „Dobro došli dragi prijatelji iz Druge gimnazije Mostar", meaning "Welcome our dear friends from Second Gymnasium Mostar". The school hall was also decorated by an exhibition containing photos of Bosnian famous monuments, and the central position was occupied by photos from war and their students' art works dedicated to our homeland and especially to the personality and the work of our first president Alija Izetbegović.
A big surprise was waiting for us in the school library, where students' parents had presented the culinary wealth of the Turkish cuisine, preparing in our honour,traditional Turkish lunch. In the afternoon we were presented with a rich cultural and artistic programme in which students and teachers from our fellow school once again welcomed us through music and dance performances.
Apart from host school and its director, teachers and students, the representatives of political structures and leading structure education managers were also actively involved in our visit.During our interactions they underlined the importance of further cooperation. It was agreed that the cooperation between our schools in the future will be continued to our mutual pleasure, through exchanging experiences, learning languages and understanding cultural elements and uniqueness of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Turkey. The next planned activity is a visit to Mostar by Turkish students with the purpose of active language learning in the everyday teaching process.
The host school in cooperation with the Bahcelievler community took a great effort to show us as many cultural monuments of Istanbul as possible and in that way bring their history, culture and tradition closer to us,which made our short visit on scenic Bosphorus unforgettable.
We send our Çobançeşme Anadolu İmam Hatip Lisesi school the words of deepest gratitude for their warm welcome, their generosity and hospitality that have been displayed during our short visit. We are especially grateful to our untired and always smiling school director, our „Huso", as we in Mostarian tradition affectionately nicknamed him.
