.ೃ࿐Reflection
With this activity I became aware of how hard hiking all day is even if we are in excellent form. It wasn't easy at all but we had great time together exploring the nature. Everytime we saw majestic view for top of the hill or from inside of the forest it got easier to hike. It's almost sad how many of us aren't even aware of living this close to some of the most beautiful views and landscapes i've ever seen. This was my first time there so everything was new and exciting! Because we spent 8 hours in nature without phones togehter, I got closer not only with new classmates but with the old ones, too. The whole experience was, maybe not physically, but mentally relaxing for everyone and we had a great time.

⛰️ Type of activity: activity
Activity description
Many of us from my class decided to join the geography section this weekend. We planned on taking a relaxing walk through the woods, looking around the whole area of Manjača and the village Stričići.
Reflection
This day was spent battling breathlessness and enjoying the enviorment, would that be the nature or my friends. Though, the breathlessness may be an over exaggaration, it is obvious that we struggled on the path. But it wasnt anything that we couldnt handle or anything that would take away our energy to keep on moving. This whole day gave us time to connect with eachother and even meet new people while climbing! The little gifts that we got at the start of the 'race' were especially sweet and they were of big help at the end. We also visited the village Stričići where we met really nice grandmas who were there to gice us water and juuces if needed. All in all this was a great activity, and I hope that we repeat it soon.

Since this was my first time participating in half-marathon and completely new role for me I feel very accomplished and grateful for this opportunity. Zmijanje half-marathon is a event organized for students to undertake a demanding challenge and to honor our tradition and natural wealth. Besides spending quality time with my friends, the thing a liked the most about this adventure was spending time in nature and appreciating breathtaking views. People tend to forget importance of spending time in nature, breathing fresh air and to be at peace. Although, I felt like giving up at some really steep hill, my friends encouraged me and I found strength to complete this half-marathon and it was a truly rewarding experience. We were surrounded by animals and felt connected with nature. Overall, I am proud of myself for taking up this new challenge and pushing myself beyond my previous limits.

Type of activity : Activity
Activity description :
This was a school-organized trip on Manjača. Everyone gathered at the starting position at 9 a.m. in front of the local school "Petar Kočić". At around 9:15 the hike started and everyone walked according to their own , desired pace. The trail was around 12 km in lenght and after the end of the race , everyone was provided a warm meal. Aferwards, almost everyone was sitting on the blankets in front of the school, talking , enjoying themselves and spending time with friends.
Learning outcomes:
Identify own strenghts and develop areas for growth
Demonstrate the skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively
Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process.
Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experiences.
Reflection:
This activity was , in my opinion , very enjoyable. However , hiking for 12 kilometers was neither an every-day nor an easy activity. Everyone including myself got to enjoy the beautiful landscapes of our country and spend the time talking and joking with friends. I think it's safe to say that everyone had a great time reconnecting with old and new friends and nature. Changing our usual, fast-paced environment , even temporarily , really helps with one's mental state , reintroducing clarity and tranquility into an otherwise chaotic mind.

Manjača hike
Activity title: Hiking on Manjača
Date/duration: Sunday, 1.10.2023. ; 08.00h-16.00h
Type of activity: Activity
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
On October 1st, students from our school participated on a hiking event that had been organized on Manjača. The trail was around 15km long, and it passed throught the village Stričići where we had a break at one of our professor's cottage. At the end of the hike we were provided with food (a delicious bean stew) and drinks.
REFLECTION
We got to the starting position in the morning hours. After a short opening ceremony, and a beatiful speech held by our city's mayor (D.S.) we started with the hike. The hike was way more demanding than what we were told it would be. The thing that kept me moving was the astonishing scenery and the fresh air. There were a lot of farm animals near the track. This made the experience even more memorable since i live in an urban enviroment so i don't usually have the chance to see them in person. We also had luck with the weather, it was nice and warm yet there were clouds to protect us from the sun. It was a good opportunity to bond with my new classmates, and I did grow closer with them. It was a really enjoyable experience all in all.

*.✧Mountain climbing✧.*
Activity title: Hiking on Manjača
Duration and date: 4 hours, October 1st 2023.
Type of CAS activity: activity
Activity description:ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ
On October 1st students from my school and I took part in " Zmijanjski maraton", although we didn't run but walked 12km. The hike started at 10:00am, lasted for 4 hours and finished around 2:00pm. It was quite an easy hike, excluding one terrible steep path, couple of hundreds meters long, that took our legs, breath and soul away. We visited the birth house of our school's PE teacher and its hiking club coordinator, Mirko Vulin. At the finishing line we shared a meal (an okaish soup), socialized, exchanged a couple of words and went back home.
Reflection:ᕙ (° ~ ° ~)
This was one of the best mood-booster and stress relief activities I had recently done. As I was enjoying quality time with my new classmat, I got to know them better and appreciete nature. Fresh air, steep paths and greenery were a nice change of pace and a great addition to my everyday life. Many domestic animals, such ac cows, horses, sheeps, donkies, dogs, cats, goats made this experience even more enjoyable and memorable, thus I am hoping to repeat this activity in the near future:)

🍄I will admit that it was a physically demanding activity. But I really enjoyed it throughout the whole process and it felt great after. This was a great experience for me. It was also my first time hiking Manjaca which made the experience even more special for me. I would definitely like to repeat this and l'm even thinking about joining a hiking group. It felt great to be completely surrounded my nature. Me and my two friends decided to go a bit faster than the rest od the group and ended up eating rice and eggs on a random field. I could dare say this was a healing experience for me. I also reconnected with my old friends with whom I grew apart because of school and lack of free time.🍄

🍀CAS activity: a walk through Manjača
⛰️🌲Activity type: activity
⏰Activity time and duration: October the 1st,2023 from 9AM to 4 PM
Activity description
🍁Our school went on an organized walk on the mountain Manjača,about an hour away from Banja Luka. We had breaks throughout the walk and also we received tote bags with some food and water. At the end of the walk,we were also offered lunch and different snacks.
Learning outcomes

Reflection
🍁We all had a good time on this hike,even though it was physically demanding. The whole time,we could admire the nature around us, so that made the hike more special in my opinion. Since almost our whole class decided to go,we got a unique chance to bond and work on being a team on this occasion. I would say that being in quiet nature the whole day , inhaling fresh air and getting away from the city at least for a bit relaxed me. This was the first time I decided to sign up for an activity like this,and I would say that I could do it again. I feel that once in a while,it is good to spend a whole day without being glued to your phone (which has become a norm for many of us)talking to others and being physically active.

Mountain climbing
🌿Title of activity : Mountain climbing
🌿Duration : 4 hours
🌿Type of activity : activity
Activity description:
Hiking section from our school organised an easy walk on Manjača this Sunday and my classmates and I decided to join them and get to know each other better doing some useful activity. We were walking for 4 hours, visited Stričići village, and had a meal together in elementary school in Manjača.
Reflection:
This activity was unexpectedly hard and demanding even if we are all young and in good form, but the overall impression is more than positive. I am really happy that I had the opportunity to get to know my classmates better and spend such a beautiful Sunday with them. We saw a lot of domestic animals which were so cute and they made our activity even more interesting, and our environment was more enjoyable because of them. Speaking of nature, views were so beautiful, and I am glad that I was able to see it because it is a shame to live 45 minutes away from natural wealth like this one and not know anything about its beauty. As a summary, I am grateful for this opportunity and I hope that it will be more activities like this because I will for sure be part of them.

Mountain climbing
🧗♀️Activity title : mountain climbing
🧗Duration and amount : 1.10.2023. from 8 AM to 3 PM
🧗♂️Type of activity : activity
Activity description
My class among many others decided to join school's geography section this weekend . The plan was to have a relaxing walk through nature , visit the Stričići village and go back to elementary school in Manjača where we had a meal.
Reflection
Even though we didn't expect such a demanding route, we still had a great time . The nature was impekable , just as I assumed it would be , and we crossed ways with many animals which bettered the whole experience. I'm glad I took the time to do this since I live in the city and don't encounter dometic animals that often . It also assisted me in getting to know my classmates better. There were times when we all wanted to give up and go back , but our teacher wouldn't let us🙄 , which I'm grateful for. Of course , there were some accidents like , for example me spilling the yogurt we were all gited all over the tote bag we were also gifted😭. When we arrived at our rest point in Stričići cute grannies gave us water or juice , which was encouraging and unforgettable . Not to forget , out of our group me and my friends arrived first at the finish . All in all , though we left our souls on that route , we still had a fantastic time . I hope we redo this next year with even more participants.

Zmijanjski maraton 2022
Activity title: Zmijanjski maraton 2022
Type of activity: Action
Duration: 1 day, 10/09/2022
Activity description
"Kozara Ultra Trail" organized the competition of the 3rd “Zmijanjski maraton 2022”, which lasted for 3 days, from September 9 to 11. About 200 competitors from five countries participated. The race tracks encompassed the most beautiful areas of the Manjača plateau. This year the students of “Gimnazija” Banja Luka also had the opportunity to participate, not in the race, but in a beautiful walk along a path about 13 km long. A bit tiring way, but because of the beautiful views and clean air, it is worth the effort. My two friends, Maja and Anđela, and I were the only ones from the third grade and our class teacher, since he lives on Manjača, took us to his house and gave us a book written by one of his relatives as a souvenir. After a successful journey, we received medals and enjoyed lunch prepared by the organizers.
Learning Outcomes
Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process
Identify your own strengths and develop areas for personal growth
Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experience
Reflection
This event left a great impression on all participants. Behind us we have wonderful memories, pictures and unforgettable socializing with friends and professors. After such walks, wherever I go, I always feel productive and full of energy. And in addition to excellent training, this hike taught us many things about the areas in which we live. Many things we should appreciate, be proud to have and share with the world.
