Designing kerosene lamps.

After learning about Ignacy Łukasiewicz and his important invention pupils designed their own Kerosene lamps






School trip to The Ignacy Łukasiewicz Museum of Petroleum Industry in Bóbrka.

To start our project work about inventors and discoveries Class 5b and 5a went to see The Ignacy Łukasiewicz Museum of Petroleum Industry in Bóbrka not far from our place. This is a unique open air museum. Polish scientist Ignacy Łukasiewicz was the first in the world to find a new use for crude oil (known as seep oil) found in the Podkarpackie district. He developed methods of distillation by which he obtained kerosene.



  In 1853 he constructed first kerosene lamp (widely known in Britain as a paraffin lamp). The world first crude oil mine was set up in Bóbrka. The Museum of Oil Industry has numerous photographs and documents relating to crude oil, including ways of extraction, exploitation and refining. The most significant monuments of this museum include the original oil well shaft, still working to this day, the original tools, a workshop from the period when the oil well in Bobrka was owned by Ignacy Łukasiewicz and the forge built at his request.

  First pupils did some sightseeing in the museum and then took part in the workshop and produced their own lamps. 




About our meeting in Burgas in local paper


Sharing news from Burgas meeting.

As always we had a special meeting with teachers and told them about our last meeting in Burgas, Bulgaria. We shared news, ideas, memories and photos. Basia, Gosia and Jola who were lucky to take part in the meeting prepared famous SHOPSKA SALAD which we had nearly every day in Bulgaria. We did very well and even used original Bulgarian cheese so everybody enjoyed it. Our pupils told about their experiences in Bulgaria in classes too.
