is a teacher of early primary education at Stefan Starzyński Primary School no. 143 in Warsaw, as well as a cultural educator  at the Władysław Broniewski Youth Cultural Centre. Her work  is grounded chiefly in interdisciplinary project-based learning  and Janusz Korczak’s educational principles: she gives children  the freedom to make decisions, organise their work and shape  their own learning. She coordinates initiatives in which children  and adults work together, with active participation central to  the development of everyone involved. Their capacity to achieve  grows out of critical and creative thinking, and from the relationships they build.

Trepkowska has coauthored educational syllabuses on ecological and historical themes, devised a series of art-history workshops for children, and curated exhibitions of children’s work.  A three-time recipient of the Warsaw Cultural Education Award  for cultural and educational projects undertaken at her school,  she won its Grand Prix in 2019. In 2024, she was one of the curators of Space®opera, presented as part of Little Warsaw Autumn.  The project received the Impulse of Culture Mazovian Cultural  Inspiration Award. In 2025, Trepkowska also won the Mazovian  Edukreator award.
