December 22 were inaugurated the school and the kindergarten in Norcia made at the initiative of Fondazione Mission Bambini in agreement with the city administration. This is the first public building in Norcia rebuilt after the 30 October earthquake, and for this reason the school is been named "Norcia rinasce" (Norcia reborn). In January 2017 will welcome more than 50 children in kindergarten that are without school because of the earthquake.
The building is a prefabricated wooden, rectangular in shape, of 184 square meters, completely earthquake-proof. It has been placed in the gardens of the former municipal skating rink in Norcia.
"The new building was built in less than a month", said Nicola Alemanno, Mayor of Norcia, "and for us hear again the voices of children shrilling in this school will be for our community the first real big signal of return to normality".
