A Sports September to Remember: Medals and Outstanding Results for Savremena Primary School Students
Seven young athletes, six sports and excellent results at national and international competitions
September brought Savremena Primary School students plenty of reasons to celebrate. While taking on new challenges in the classroom at the beginning of the school year, they were also training hard, competing and achieving results they can be truly proud of outside school.
From rhythmic gymnastics, basketball and karate to tennis, karting and judo, our students showed that dedication, discipline and perseverance can lead all the way to the podium. Some returned with gold medals, others with silver or bronze, but behind every result are countless hours of training, determination and the desire to make every new performance even better.
Sporting achievements are especially valuable because they teach children much more than how to compete. Through sport, they learn to set goals, embrace challenges, persevere when things become difficult and show respect for their teammates and opponents. These are precisely the skills that play an important role in the personal development of Savremena Primary School students.
That is why we are delighted to present the September sporting achievements of seven Savremena Primary School students.
Seven Students, Six Sports and Results Worth Applauding
Darija Chudak, IV-3 – 1st Place, Rhythmic Gymnastics
Darija won first place in the 2016 age category at the international rhythmic gymnastics tournament “Ševala Mujić 2026” in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Her excellent performance earned her a well-deserved place at the top of the podium.
Strahinja Mijatović, V-1 – Bronze Medal, Basketball
Strahinja, who plays for Pobednik 011 Basketball Club, won a bronze medal together with his teammates at the “Turnir Zemuna – Dado i Darko” tournament. This result once again showed just how important teamwork, team spirit and perseverance are on the road to success.
Despot Bugarčić, V-1 – Bronze Medal, Karate
At the highly competitive international Champions Cup tournament in Podgorica, Despot demonstrated determination, skill and true sporting spirit, winning a bronze medal in a challenging field of competitors.
Ignjat Bugarčić – Bronze Medal, Karate
Ignjat won a bronze medal at the international karate competition in Podgorica. Another excellent result and a testament to his dedication to the sport, perseverance and determination to continue improving.
Andrej Glišović, VI-1 – 2nd Place, U14 Tennis
Andrej also achieved an excellent result, taking second place in the U14 tennis competition in Kraljevo. Another achievement that reflects his dedication, perseverance and sporting talent.
Nikša Đuričković – 1st Place, Karting
Nikša won first place in the SAKSS Championship in the Rotax MiniMax class, adding another gold medal to the impressive collection of September achievements by Savremena Primary School students.
Simon Osećanski, V-3 – 1st Place, Judo
On 19 September, Simon competed at the Crvena zvezda Cup 2026, organised by the Judo Federation of Serbia, where he won first place and a gold medal. It was an outstanding result through which he once again demonstrated his talent, discipline and dedication to judo.
Sport Builds Much More Than Results
Medals and rankings are certainly a reason to be proud, but the value of sport extends far beyond the podium. Training sessions, preparation and competitions teach children to be persistent, responsible and disciplined, to cope with pressure and to approach every new challenge with even greater determination.
At Savremena Primary School, the development of the whole child is encouraged, which is why it is important for students to have opportunities to discover and nurture their interests beyond the classroom. Sport is one of the ways they can build self-confidence, develop healthy habits and team spirit, and establish an attitude towards hard work that can benefit them in every area of life.
The achievements of Darija, Strahinja, Despot, Ignjat, Andrej, Nikša and Simon show just how many different talents are growing among Savremena Primary School students. Each of their achievements tells a different story, but they are all connected by hard work, perseverance and the desire to keep improving.
Congratulations to our young athletes on their outstanding September results. We wish them many more challenges, personal bests and winning moments in the future. With or without a medal, the greatest achievement is developing the habit of setting ambitious goals and working towards them patiently, consistently and one step at a time.
