The roots of Saulkrasti Secondary School reach back to Pabaži, to 1912, when a young teacher – Olga Veicmane (after marriage: Cīrule) arrived from Riga to teach the sea captain Reisons’ daughter. Soon many other tutor-seekers joined her and in autumn of 1912 a school was established in Pabaži. The school had a good reputation, and pupils came from the entire surrounding area. In January of 1913, the school was moved to more spacious premises at 20 Rīgas Street. 
During World War I the school was ruined and its furniture and equipment were dragged away. In 1918 the school was reopened, giving an opportunity for children to enjoy many interesting and captivating activities such as choir singing, theatre group and a group of new writers. The headmaster of the school Olga Cīrule became the soul of local social life. By 1933, the number of pupils had outgrown the size of the school. Therefore in 1933, the school was moved to 3 Raiņa Street – to the premises of the former outpatient clinic. The school was named Pēterupe Primary School. In 1950, the school became Saulkrasti Secondary School and at the end of 1956 the school obtained a new and beautiful building at 6 Smilšu Street.

Saaremaa, kas no igauņu valodas tulkojumā nozīmē "salu zeme" ir kā neizskaidrojams magnēts, kas ik vasaru pievelk ne tikai daudzus Latvijas, bet arī ārvalstu ceļotājus. Neparastais ar salām izraibinātais un zilais jūras klajs, savdabīgās kadiķu pļavas - alvāri, seni, neredzētas formas Dievnami, Baltijas tautām nozīmīgi vēstures pieminekļi - pilskalni, pils, nepieredzēta sugu, īpaši - putnu bagātība, vējdzirnavas, Eiropas iespaidīgākais meteorīta krāteris, senie zvejnieku ciemi ar salenieku parašām un īpatnībām - tās ir tikai dažas salas iezīmes. Salas galvaspilsēta - Kuressaare ir viena no skaistākajām Igaunijas mazpilsētām ar senu rātsnamu un rātslaukumu un vienu no iespaidīgākajām viduslaiku pilīm Baltijā, kurai pēc izskata nav līdzīgu. Kuressaare vērts pasēdēt kādā no pilsētas krodziņiem. Saaremaa salā ceļotāji tiek gaidīti vienmēr, par ko liecina labi pārdomātā un kvalitatīvā tūrisma infrastruktūra. Sala ir īsta paradīze ne tikai mierīgas atpūtas meklētājiem, bet arī visa veida aktīvās atpūtas piekritējiem - kājāmgājējiem, velobraucējiem, jūras viļņu vagotājiem un dabas vērotājiem!

This is an ancient populated area.  There were 50 homesteads here during the 1930s, with only ten remaining in 1990.  The Livonian scholar and entomologist Kārlis Princis (1893-1978) was born in Oviši.  In 1944, he emigrated to Sweden.  The Oviši lighthouse (1814) is 38 metres high and is the oldest functioning lighthouse in Latvia.  There are lovely views from the top of the lighthouse.  The building in which employees of the lighthouse used to live was erected in 1905 and has been preserved.  A narrow-gauge train station was in the building at one time.  The Oviši Lighthouse Museum is nearby, as is the metal Tree of Austra.  Opposite Cape Oviši is a great place for bird watching.
