New canteen and kitchen space up and running
Following a few campaigns in the past months, we were able to finally start operating from our new canteen and kitchen space which much more spacious and is equipped with modern cooking tools and machinery for a quicker and healthier meal plan. Out kitchen staff could not be happier!
We finally got our potato peeler machine, our vegetable cutter and some practicale storage kitchen shelfs for storing the food. We also purchased the new tables and chairs that go into the canteen and furnished with fire extinguished to enable us to meet the health and safety requirements. At about the 4th week of the second semester we got our athorisation and opened the kitchen for our all pupils, teachers and mentors. Being located out in the village, 20km from the nearest town, it is much better to be able to eat at the canteen and most importantly bond with the children over a nice hit meal.
Our 7th grade pupils successfully admitted in some of the best national high schools
Since we are a primary school from kindergarden to 7th grade age 3 to 15, we support pur pupils to apply in the high schools of their chosen profession and continue to finance and support them until they are 18 years old. This year we had 3 pupils in 7th grade who applied and were successfully admitted in the Natiopnal Professional school of Arts in Plovdiw city, the National Folklor Singing school in Shiroka Luka town and the Transport school in Kazanlak town.
All pupils were accepted as per their first wish for a profile. Suffice to say we are extremely proud and lookign forward to see how they become professionals. Of course we are also working on helping them find soem work experience and internships.
Current focus: The school year has now finished and we are focusing on roof repauirment as the rainy months will soon hit us. We discivered a small leak in the roof and will be fundraising to fix that as a matter. We also need to ensure that before the new school year starts, our dormitory undergoes a refurbishment of every room's bathroom as this hasnt been done for quite some time.
Thank you to all our supporters! We wouldn't exist without you!
