There were about 36 cities participating around
the ex-Yugoslavia area.
Bozica Simlesa of the City department for education,
culture and sports: "It doesn`t matter if the record
is broken or not, but that Zagreb seniors have been practicing
hard for the past few days and showed that there are other
ways to celebrate the last day of school".
He added that the programme will be easier next
year because Zagreb seniors will dance the quadrille at their
celebration of the last day of school (the so called Norijada)
from now on, and not like this as they have done for the past
two times.
