Our school caries the name Matija Gubec elementary school. It has got the name by Matija Gubec, a man who fought for the rights of the peasants and took the Peasants' Revolt in 1573. The kids in our place started to go to school regularly since 1863, that was the beginning of the existence of the school in Gornja Stubica. Before that time people didn’t matter about their children’s education. Children didn’t attend school because the people in Hrvatsko Zagorje were very poor.
Parents were very uncaring and they thought that for their children will be far better if they helped them to work on the field. The school was also very far away because the houses were all over many hills.The school building that we attend today was open since 1970; the gym was built in 1978.
The school is in a little valley by the main road that connects the centre of Gornja Stubica and Donja Stubica. The garden around the school is neat, because the students and the teachers take care of the flowers, trees, anushes.On 22nd April 2004 we had celebrated the 140 years of the school in Gornja Stubica. In the hall of the school the exhibition was opened. There were some photographs of the history of our school, of the classrooms, teachers, students. Special guests were old teachers that once worked in our school.
Bojan Markicevic graduated in 2011 in physics-geophysics in the field of the Earth's magnetosphere, at the University of Zagreb. He is an experienced mentor and science communicator, and is involved in teaching and teacher training in formal and informal education.During his studies, he launched the Natural Science Student Association - PRIMUS, to improve communication between students and teachers within the Science Faculty. Through that association he organized and held many workshops and seminars for a general audience. In 2008 in the Zagreb Student Centre, he started the radio show 'Science on air' on Radio SC, as editor in chief. This year he moved to Radio Student, where his weekly program involves many scientific researchers and communicators.

He has now starting producing educational scientific videos for the Zagreb Student Centre.Since 2009 he has been teaching physics, first in The International Baccalaureate Middle School Matija Gubec and later in one of Zagreb's high schools. He often experiments teaching with drama techniques as a tool for better conceptual understanding of physical and scientific phenomena. He has also been coordinating the Centre for Advancement of Education within Science and Society Synergy Institute in Cakovec, Croatia.For 6 years, since its beginning, he has been involved in Summer Science Factory, an inquiry research project-based science summer school now held simultaneously in 4 different cities in Croatia, with 60 mentors and more than 150 students. He is now co-organizer and senior adviser, in charge of evaluation and training of these mentors, who are students without any experience in education, teachers, and researchers.Finally, in 2009 he gathered an international team where science communication is developed as a conflict management tool, giving birth to the Con-Sol project (Constructive Solutions).
That is how we got in touch with him. Somehow we think there will be more surprises coming from him soon.
