Second-hand book fair is a traditional project of Zveza ŠKIS, taking place in early September during the weekend in Križanke, Ljubljana. Second-hand book fair is intended for children and their parents, whose social status does not allow them to buy new textbooks and other school supplies, and to those who see no point in buying new books every year.
"ŠKIS days of healthy living" is a two-day project, through which we want to raise awareness about healthy lifestyle and promote solidarity among students. The most important objective is to promote and maintain values such as healthy and active life, solidarity and empathy.
