Holiday retreats in Zambratija

Community, leadership and tradition make the colonies with the “Anita Ogulin and ZPM” Association so special! Fostering leadership skills and a sense of community have been an important part of our association for 68 years. Our educators are also the oldest participants of our holiday retreats, who are now in charge of planning and managing numerous events, special traditions and evening activities.

The “Anita Ogulin and ZPM” Association leads by example. We believe that it is equally important for young people to acquire leadership skill as it is for us to teach them how to be responsible. Younger members of our colonies learn these skills by observing older members, comforting a friend, and taking initiative. In our colonies, you will often notice an older member helping a younger one carry their tray to the dining room or carrying their SUP to the beach.

During our holidays, educators talk a lot with children and each other so that we can always ensure that everybody has the best possible summer.

Summer colonies

The renovated seaside villa in Zambratija is located in a park with tall pine trees, greens, and football, basketball, handball, beach volleyball and table tennis courts. The large park offers a natural shade and cooling, as well as a perfect opportunity for children and adolescents to relax and enjoy sports activities. The home also has a well-maintained beach.

SUITABLE AGE OF CHILDREN: All programmes are suitable for primary school students from 6 to 14 years of age! (if your child has already reached the age of 15 but has been attending elementary school just before this summer, they can still apply). Unfortunately, registration for older children is not possible for regular school programmes.

PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THIS WEBSITE BEFORE APPLYING.

APPLICATIONS AND DATES IN 2024

Applications will not be opened until 7 May 2024 at 10 am (when healthcare proposals will also enter circulation). Please prepare your ID number for filling out the application; if you are applying for a medical holiday retreat, please also prepare your HIIS number.

The amount of medical holiday retreats that can be organised in Zambratija is limited, which is why free places can be filled in one day. When the choice “MEDICAL HOLIDAY RETREAT” is no longer available, this means that the places allocated for medical holiday retreats in this shift have already been filled, which is why it is no longer possible to apply through a healthcare proposal.

We kindly ask you not to send us your healthcare proposals before your application for a medical holiday retreat in Zambratija has been confirmed. You will receive a confirmation of your application by e-mail.

After SUCCESSFULLY applying to participate in a medical holiday retreat, you must send a properly COMPLETED AND SIGNED healthcare proposal (see below) to our address – Proletarska cesta 1, SI-1000 Ljubljana. You will receive an e-mail confirmation of your participation in a medical holiday retreat.

Immediately after applying for a subsidised holiday retreat, you must send the application that you have sent to the Department of Social Services to prijave@zpmmoste.net, including the description of your family and financial situation, as well as all pages of the valid child benefits decision (see below).

**SUBSIDISED HOLIDAY RETREAT

  • Due to increased costs of living, numerous families cannot afford to pay the holiday retreats at a full price. In addition, the number of medical holiday retreats is also severely limited. This is why we are allowing for a possibility of subsidised holiday retreats, with the help of our donors.
  • This subsidy is intended for anyone who cannot afford to pay the full price of the holiday retreat.
  • Please indicate on your application that you are applying for a subsidised holiday retreat. Immediately after applying for a subsidised holiday retreat, you must send a description of your family and financial situation to prijave@zpmmoste.net (object: subsidy), including the description of your family and financial situation, as well as the child benefits decision which clearly states your income class.
  • The subsidy is decided upon by the Subsidised Holidays Commission of the ZPM Moste-Polje. Once confirmed, you will receive an invoice for the holiday retreat with a discounted amount by e-mail.

*MEDICAL HOLIDAY RETREAT (subsidised by the HIIS)

Medical holiday retreats are intended for children who are more often bothered by health issues, and are subsidised by the Health Insurance Institute of Slovenia.
The condition for participating in these medical holiday retreats is a healthcare proposal that can be obtained from the child’s personal physician. A child who has been sick more often and whose health issues are recorded in their medical documentation, or who has been hospitalised is entitled to benefit from a medical holiday retreat.
A medical holiday retreat can be taken with one of the organisers who are organising medical holiday retreats for the region in which they live.
The number of available places for a medical holiday retreat in Zambratija is limited. Once these places are filled, the application form will no longer have the option to “apply through a healthcare proposal”, and you will unfortunately not be able to make use of your healthcare proposal with us. In this case, you can contact other medical holiday retreat organisers in your municipality.
In Zambratija, where approximately 1000 children will spend their summer holidays every summer, the following number of children will be allowed to make use of their HIIS subsidy:

  • a total of: 175 children from the municipalities of Ljubljana, Brezovica, Dobrova, Dol pri Ljubljani, Horjul, Ig, Medvode, Notranje Gorice, Polhov Gradec, Smlednik, Strahovica, Škofljica, Velike Lašče, Vodice
  • a total of: 20 children from the municipalities of Kamnik, Komenda
  • a total of:13 children from the municipalities of Vrhnika, Log-Dragomer, Borovnica

After your submitted application has been confirmed, you must send your healthcare proposal to our address – Proletarska cesta 1, SI-1000 Ljubljana within 14 days. The healthcare proposal must also be completed and signed by you (on the overleaf from the doctor’s completed information)!
