On Saturday, March 9, 2019, Primary school dr. Ljudevita Pivka Ptuj, organized  4th  RED BALLONS MARCH  dedicated to THE DAY OF RARE DISEASES, which is part of the all-Slovenian March. On February 28, we mark the International Day of Rare Diseases. In Slovenia, it is astimated that 120,000 people are affected.
This event was one of the activities of the international school project  I.D.E.A. TOGETHER WE CAN! of 6 Europeen partners: from Slovenia, Italy, Portugal, Turkey, Poland and Croatia.
To this end, we invited participants of the march to gather between 9.30 am and 10.00 am at our school.  We saw  a short film about the school and a  program that was prepared by pupils of the school.
At 11.00 am., the march started in front of the school, continued along  Volkmerjeva Street, Panonska Street, Slomškova street, Vinarski Square, Lackova ulica and finished on Mestni Square 1 - in front of the town house.
The Mayor of the Municipality of Ptuj, Ms Nuška Gajšek and the Minister of Agriculture Mrs Aleksandra Pivec attended the event too.
Association Soroptimistk from Ptuj prepared home baked pastries, Talum d.o.o.  donated funds for filling balloons with helium. Štajerski frajtonarji  spiced up the event with music ... they stretched their accordions so far that they could be heard all around!
Sincere thanks for your contribution to the event.
