Janusz Korczak Educational Award for Raszyńska!

Warsaw authorities appreciating the efforts of schools in the field of education, established the Janusz Korczak Educational Award. Janusz Korczak, or actually Henryk Goldszmit, was a pioneer of fighting for the children's rights, the creator of modern anti-authoritarian education system, a doctor, a writer, and above all, an educator, who regarded his profession as a vocation.

This year was the first year of the competition.
Today, October 8th 2014, at the Centre of Documentation and Research "Korczakianum" took place the Janusz Korczak Award Gala, during which we met the winners of the first edition of the competition. One of them was my previous school - Społeczne Gimnazjum Raszyńska. We also listened to a lecture on the Janusz Korczak's pegadogical ideas.
