The 60th Lithuanian Pupils' Olympiad took place on January 14. We are very happy with the excellent results of the VJG young chemists and congratulate the winners!

Congratulations to Lidija Radzevičiūtė from class IIIc for winning 2nd place in the Vilnius City English Language Olympiad and qualifying for the national stage of the Olympiad!

The Little Academy, located under the roof of the Lithuanian Catholic Academy of Science, invites all those who wish to form an independent, seriously reasoned view of God and faith, to acquire and improve their knowledge of Christianity and the Christian life.

The spring semester begins in January 2022. 

After the biggest holidays of the year are over, and 2022 is just about to accelerate, we - the members of the student parliament - invite you to familiarize yourself with the most important events of the festive weeks in the gymnasium. December was full of colors and a variety of Christmas activities that brightened the days for all members of the community!

During Advent, we shared the tasks created by MTMP (Small Student Parliament) on the MS Teams platform and @tmp_vjg Instagram account on a daily basis. Their goal is to give Advent meaningfulness, coziness and more community!

On December 3 Community members were also delighted by a playlist of carefully selected Christmas songs shared by members of MTMP. You can find it on Spotify and Youtube platforms.

On December 9 after a long break, a long awaited evening of films returned to the gymnasium to the main hall of Lojoteka. All the students of the gymnasium who wanted to watch the classic Christmas film "How Grinch stole Christmas" were invited to the event. Photos from the event.

On December 12 St. at the Šv. Kazimieras Church, everyone gathered was fascinated by the gymnasium choir "Krantas" in the concert Cantate Domino, which marked the official start of the choir's 25th concert season. You can listen to short fragments here.

On December 13-17 days Christmas postcard workshops were held intensively in Lojoteka, which were accessible to all students. The postcards delighted those who lacked the warmth the most during the holiday season - they were handed over to the grandparents' house Senevita!

The 17th of December was celebrated by the gymnasium with a themed laundry day and Christmas music during breaks. Students were able to vote for the classes that wear the most “Christmas” uniforms, and thus elect the winners! Congratulations again to IIIm, who took first place and a visit to bowling and 7c and primary second class after starting second and third places!

On December 19 was released the first this year (and seventh overall) episode of VJG LIVE. Antanas Dzimidavičius, a gymnasium physics teacher and the head of the education department, is interviewed in this series. In the show you will hear unheard stories from school life, unexpected life facts and all the answered questions about the profession of "discipline teacher". We invite you to take a look!

The December 20th marks the premiere of the VJG Advent newspaper! The small student parliament once again delighted members of the community with its newspaper, this time about Advent! Gift ideas, recipes, fun facts, jokes and more can be found in the digital magazine! Make sure to read it!

Also from December 20th. Until Christmas, Vilnius Jesuit Gymnasium shared a series of musical greetings “Sounding VJG Christmas” on the Facebook page. Even in six parts of the concert, you will be able to hear performances by different members of the community - students, teachers and parents. Make sure to listen to them!

On January 1 the premiere of an unprecedented project - ,,Christmas Kitchen” - took place on the Youtube account of the VJG Student Parliament! In a hilarious episode, the title of Best Culinary was struck by joint teams of teachers and members of parliament and congratulated viewers on the most beautiful holidays of the year. We invite you to remember the cozy Christmas atmosphere with this show!

TMP congratulates you with the New Year, wishes you a cozy winter and productive work when you return to school after the holidays! Best wishes <3

It is a course for believers and non-believers alike.
It is an opportunity to hear different speakers share their experiences and insights.
It is a way to get to know Christianity better, to find out what it really stands for.

Members of the VJG community played and sang musical Christmas greetings. Good listening and Merry Christmas!

Three boys from our gymnasium won bronze medals at the International Junior Science Olympiad: Jurgis Kemeklis (IIa), Titas Balčiūnas (8b), Matas Garbaravičius (IIIm). Congratulations and three cheers! 🥳👏

This month, the fifth-graders of our Gymnasium have been learning about H.K. Andersen's childhood, reading his fairy tales, studying them, making plays, taking part in a quiz and illustrating a chosen fairy tale during art lessons. Presentations and discussions of the illustrations took place at the Lojoteka last week.

We are delighted with the beautiful work of the fifth graders.

Teachers Jūratė Tamošiūnaitė-Karašauskienė and Jūratė Vilčiauskaitė-Smelstorienė

Little ones send their parents a classified greeting for St. Christmas! You may need red glasses to read them 😎

On Saturday at LITEXPO, Vilnius Jesuit Gymnasium was represented by the young company GIMNAZIYA together with economics teacher Danute Bareikiene at the event "Christmas is Back - eXpo 2021". The team consists of two Jesuit Gymnasium students, Miglė Sveikataitė (IIIc) and Kovas Kastanauskas (IIIa), and a student from Vilnius Užupis Gymnasium, Saulė Paulauskaitė.
