Yes-event (Young European School conference) is an annual international conference for young European students. Started in 2005, Yes-event takes place during the third week of November. In the course of this week, students make presentations, participate in international group work activities, discuss topical issues, solve creative tasks, and become familiar with the local sights and ways of life. The participants get a chance to use their English actively, meet and socialise with their peers from other European schools, and express their opinion on issues relevant to young Europeans.
