Everything has been done in Belarus to make September 1st a true holiday for every schoolchild, teacher and parent, notes President Alexander Lukashenko, on visiting Minsk’s secondary school.
Huge funds have been allocated from the state budget for these tasks. The President underlined that this is a vital investment into the future of our country: into our new generation, and into those who will revere and keep safe Belarus. Mr. Lukashenko especially congratulated first-graders, saying, “This day is one of the most memorable for our first-graders. It is the day when the long road to knowledge and adulthood begins.” He encouraged teachers to do everything to give proper care and attention to children. “May the first academic year bring interesting revelations and new knowledge,” the President asserted.
