Students of Josip Kozarac Elementary School and Eugen Kumičić Elementary School, along with their teachers- mentors, achieved cooperation within the GLOBE program. Both schools have been actively implementing the GLOBE program for a long period of time which is necessary to fulfill certain conditions in school and purchase necessary equipment. Measurements and observations made in our environment include area of the atmosphere, water, soil and vegetation (plant cover). Both schools put the gathered results into a joint database on the GLOBE server. We are a part of a big GLOBE family which consists of over 20 000 schools in over 100 countries all over the world on all continents, including the Antarctica.
(Croatia was among the first countries to enter the GLOBE program and is currently one of the hundred countries included in the program which, according to percentage, ranks us among the first countries in the world.)
At this meeting, our school got a chance to see the work of the Eugen Kumičić Elementary School through presentations and workshops which made by students with the help of their teachers-mentors. There was a demonstration of water analysis taken out of Slatina's Javorica Lake where the students measured the amount of oxygen, presence of nitrites and pH values by using the IabDisc.
