Knezija and our school have been in love for a long time......

Knezija is lovely. We are particularly fond of this part of town of approximately 10 000 residents. The old centre built in 1615 still remains, around which the greater part of Knezija was added, after the flood in Zagreb in 1964.
Marginal parts of the area facing the river Sava have been changed due to the construction of new buildings.

And here in Knezija proudly stands our old lady.... since 1897. Although already over a hundred years old she is still such a beauty!
The ground floor was built in 1897, the first floor in 1927 and then our school started to look like what it is today.
Throughout the years, all those that have had the opportunity to pass through our school have been respectful and caring allowing the school to withstand the test of time. Luckily for all of us who loved it and are going to love it, she is still here!
This year we will proudly celebrate 112th anniversary of its existence!
