Summary/Abstract: The present work describes some good teaching practices in religion-Eastern Orthodox in the contemporary Bulgarian school. The main focus is on the extra-curricular activities as an unlimited opportunity to put into practice what has been learnt in the classroom environment. Some of the activities are as follows: summer pilgrimage camps in monasteries where children participate in common prayers during the Divine Liturgy and have educational discussions with priests, drama plays and celebrations devoted to the Lord's and Virgin's feasts, the creation of an interactive game book of encyclopaedic character with the title “Lap book of the Christian child“. Another innovative practice is the "Going into the Temple Together" which gathers students, teachers and parents into a common spiritual experience. The joint pilgrimage trips bring tribute to holy places and build positive behaviours among adolescents.
