As part of the “Back to School” campaign and on the occasion of the start of the new school year, East Gate Mall is pleased to announce this year’s edition of the extracurricular activities fair “Be Cool After School.”

This event is intended for children and young people, with the goal of helping them discover new interests, hobbies, and activities that will contribute to their personal and academic development.

What will you find at the fair?

1. Tinker Labs Macedonia
An educational center for children in Skopje, where through play and hands-on work in the STEAM methodology (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics), creativity and curiosity are nurtured in children aged 4 to 16.

2. Raduvaj Se (Relax Kids)
The Relax Kids workshops consist of seven steps through which children learn to calm down, relax, and focus. The workshops include dance and movement, drama and relaxation, stretching, peer massage, breathing exercises, affirmations, mindfulness, and visualizations.

3. Vedra Edukacija
An organization that conducts creative workshops for children—for example, fractal drawing classes with 7th-grade students, as well as artistic creative challenges for children aged 5 to 13.

4. Break A Leg
A hip-hop and modern dance studio in Skopje, founded in October 2008. It offers programs for participants aged 4 to 50, supported by professional dancers and instructors. The studio actively promotes hip-hop culture, organizes international competitions, workshops, and lectures, and its participants have won numerous awards on both national and international levels.

5. Avenga Academy
A modern educational and training center specialized in professional courses in IT and business fields: web development (AI-Driven Web Dev), computer networks/ITOps, Data Science, Cyber Security, DevOps, Software Testing, Digital Marketing, Sales & Business Development, UI/UX, and more.

6. EC Johnson Academy

The Academy is positioned as a modern educational institution whose mission is to make the study of foreign languages a natural and integral part of the everyday life and culture of its students.

This approach is realized through:

• Longstanding teaching experience and continuous professional development of the teaching staff.
• An intensive focus on practical and communicative language learning, rather than limiting students to theoretical knowledge.
• Innovation and modern methodologies, which form the foundation of the curriculum design.
• Integration of digital tools and interactive resources that make the learning process dynamic, engaging, and tailored to the needs of students.

Our work is based on the principles of quality, professionalism, and trust. We believe that every student has the potential to achieve outstanding results if provided with appropriate support, expert mentors, and modern educational tools.

Thus, the Academy is not only a place for learning foreign languages but also a center for personal and academic development, opening new opportunities and perspectives for the future.

7. American Corner
American Corner is a cultural and educational center that, in addition to offering free access to books, magazines, and digital resources, is also a place where training sessions, creative workshops, and educational programs for children and young people are regularly organized.
Through activities such as reading clubs, STEM workshops, creative writing courses, lectures, and interactive games, children have the opportunity to learn English, develop critical thinking, and become familiar with American culture. The Corners also often organize summer programs and special events for children, aiming to spark curiosity and creativity.
