We have drawn the line of the first literary contest for the best essay "My Latest Trip”. Unfortunately only the students of our school  have taken part in the contest. 27 essays were sent by the students of the 6^th-10^th grades. We should admit that some of them impressed us with fresh thoughts and original  points of view. We also decided to name the winners in each grade separately. Thus the first place among the 6^th grades are shared by Lisa Symko and Yulia Slashchova; the best author in the 8^th grade without any doubt is Irine Dasuk; the absolute winner in the 9^th grade is Alina Shumna.

We congratulate our winners and wish them further achievements in English.
