Teacher of the school Jeyran Mammadova shared her joy by these words: “On this “Knowledge Day”, I am happy both as a teacher and also as a parent, as our school where I have been teaching for years was basically renovated and placed at the disposal of teachers and pupils.

Following the initiative of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, another school was basically repaired and placed at the disposal of pupils and teachers. It is Secondary School No.34 named after Samir Veliyev in Ganja city.

 

Basic repair works were carried out on the school building, constructed in 1984. 36 classrooms, a laboratory, labour and language rooms, an informatics room, a room for military training, as well as preschool education room are functioning in the school building, provided with all necessary furniture and equipment.

 

Pupil of the school Ilhama Alasgarova, expressing her joy for continuing her education in such a modern school in the new school year, said: “Due to the old school building’s being not repaired, we could not receive a quality education. Especially, as we did not have subject laboratories, we studied not on practices, but on theory. As in other schools in the city, I used to dream of our school too having been provided with state-of-the-art conditions. This school year was twice joyful for both the teachers and the pupils. We too have now a state-of-the-art school. And now, we will study with more enthusiasm and try to enter higher schools with better scores”.

 

Pupil Elvin Safarov: “Today is the “Knowledge Day” and the day on which our school is commissioned after basic repair. Both the remarkable days make the staff of our school very happy. At the moment, we are having our first lesson in this school year in the biology laboratory. Our biology laboratory, as well as laboratories on other subjects have been provided with necessary equipment, and teaching accessories. The modern sports ground and hall will allow us to become healthier and engage in the types of sports we wish more correctly.

 

We thank on behalf of all pupils Azerbaijan’s First Vice-president Mehriban Aliyeva for making us experience this joy, and for the high care and attention shown towards us.
