20TH IT COMPETITION “PULA MY CITY 2026”
On the occasion of the City of Pula Day, the 20th “Pula My Town 2026” IT competition was announced, organized by the Society of Informatics Pula. It is a jubilee edition of the competition, which for two decades has been bringing together students from elementary schools in Pula and encouraging them to develop digital competences through creative work.
The competition is intended for students from 1st to 8th grade, divided into two groups: 1st 5th grade and 6th 8th grade. In both groups, students can compete in the categories of digital drawing, short film and animation. Each student has the possibility to apply a maximum of one paper in each category.
