Introduction
Situated on top of "Rose Hill" with a wonderful view on Buda side, Fillér Elementary School started primary education with a qualified,well-prepared staff in 1985. Besides the traditional elementary education this school was the first in the district to introduce English language teaching from the first class in 1988. It was such a success that by 1990 nearly 700 students attended Fillér school, though the building was originally designed for 400! Now the number of children is just optimal which allows us to teach English not in whole classes but in small groups.
In 2000 a new element of foreign language teaching came to Fillér school. German nationality language teaching has arrived at our school, a successful program which was started at Marcibányi Square Elementary School. The joining of the two language sections at one school shows the increasing interest in language teaching in our district. Besides languages we also insist on the importance of sports and being fit and healthy, too.In the afternoons students can take part in Games lessons as well. They can choose from football,basketball, gymnastics and judo trainings. Computer studies are also highlighted at our school. A well-equiped classroom is available for the students where they can learn the basis of standard programs (Word, Excel, Power Point). There is an increasing demand for the engagement of children in the afternoons. Craft and music lessons and different study circles are held to fulfil all needs. Favourable personal and objective conditions provide the standard of education for the forthcoming years. Among the 45 teachers several of them have got two or more qualifications, some of them received Mayor’s award in the previous years.
