The school is in the West side of the town, in Geranionu Street. There are flowers, trees and grass around our school. We have got a big, but old stadium by the school, too.
There are small and old villages in the neighborhood in about 3-18 kilometers. Children go to school by bus, on foot. Some parents take children to school by cars.

Do you have Shrovetide holiday? You can see a moment of it in Dieveniskes. Lithuanians celebrate Pancake Tuesday seven weeks before Easter and make lots of noise and fun. They eat lots of pancakes and gross food. Our schoolchildren like this holiday very much. They make masks, sing ancient folk songs, and shout loudly. Then, winter takes fright, leaves away, and spring comes!
