One of our fun activities is sharing a love of cooking with our young branch member, Žan. He attends the Confectionery specific high school and we spent an afternoon together, while he taught me how to make traditional Slovene "Jaffee Slice" cookies.
In this part of the world, the last three years of high school are dedicated to a specifically declared major, i.e. auto mechanics, nursing, cooking, shop keeping, music. You attend that school in that building with only the other students who have also declared that major. If you don't pass the tests at the end of the school, you have one more year to try again. If you fail then, you have to pay back your fees! Pretty good incentive to pass!
