We respond to a social concern of education, not only in Slovakia, but also in other European countries by our project "The family create" .Taking strong emphasis on the quantity of acquired knowledge, low school connectedness with practical life, early school leavers without the necessary skills and qualifications, with the an inability to assert themselves in the labor market and thus expanding the number of unemployed is reason for our project. Our goal is the best prepare students for their further studies especially in vocational schools not only in theory but in practice scale. We want pass them as much practical skills and experience. We are sure that they develop a positive attitude towards work, foster a sense of teamwork and those of their ability to support the increasing their language skills in quality, modern foreign language teaching, increasing their chances of applying also to the foreign labor market.
To achieve its objectives in education of our students, it is necessary to extend the pedagogical expertise and language skills of teachers in our school and even education in foreign educational institutions. There are 8 teachers involved in our project from our school- 6 teachers from the first grade and 2 teachers from the second grade. Teachers of the first grade have a positive attitude towards creative activities for needlework, but they need to gain further practical skills, acquire innovative procedures, techniques necessary to the implementation of planned activities and expand their language competence. They need to get work and theoretical skills to growing plants, to work with clay and silk, sewing and decorating textiles, the weaving skills and learn new approaches to managing and treating waste material. English teacher wants to teach with new, creative methods to acquire interesting, playful and creative activities that will contribute to the effective take-up of foreign language pupils. All the skills and knowledge we would like to use in implementing planned activities with pupils, their parents and other interested parties. Among these activities, we plan to include the creation of the Educational herbal educational path, that is for development of the students practical and theoretical knowledge of cultivation and caring of plants within lessons and in extra-curricular activities. We want deals with textile paintings of waste material to support the pupils' positive attitude towards the environment and national cultural traditions. Other activities –silk painting and working with clay - support the development of pupils' imagination and fine motoric skills during the year. We will perform a variety of movement activities for which utilize acquired practical knowledge and skills- European languages week, implementation of eTwinning projects, Christmas workshops, Production of White London, making a gifts for teachers, production scenery for performances of school theatre group- Púpavienky for the cultural program, production of carnival masks from waste materials, joint workshops with clients of the Institute of Social care, making gifts for Mother's Day, children and fathers. The result of our project will be an increased level of technical and practical skills of teachers, who can transmit it to their pupils in teaching and learning process, in the interest and free time activities, where pupils may show the talent and creativity although some pupils have weaker profit. With their paintings, performances at various events, presenting in the regional press and television, organization of joint workshops with parents and with populations of the city they and school become visible. By establishing the herb educational path and useful garden, students get more space to continue in the activities, that started to make our school the most approaching of the practical training.

At the same time, our students will participate in international projects, both in eTwinning or Erasmus, where they will gain invaluable experience and new friends from European countries, they will make new friends, contacts and our school will afford the transnational dimension.
