Students from Ksyyl Syri travelled to Irkutsk for an exchange of thoughts and colorful experiences.
Students and teachers from the rural village of Kysyl-Syr recently visited the "Future Point" educational complex in Irkutsk, marking a significant step in the ongoing collaboration between educational institutions, supported by PJSC "YATEK." During the trip, 19 high school students, accompanied by their mentoring teachers, actively participated in the III Interregional Project Research Forum "Science Start Point."
At the forum, the students had an opportunity to present their research work and familiarize themselves with the educational infrastructure of "Future Point." Sharing her experience, 8th grade "b" class student Amelia Unarova commented, "The emotions were like the first time! Everything at 'Future Point' is so well-designed and convenient that you don't want to leave. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, everyone was smiling and helpful."
"Future Point" is a distinctive charitable project by businessman Albert Albertovich Avdolyan, founded by his "New Home" Charity Foundation. The project's uniqueness lies in offering free education in its kindergarten and school, as well as supporting families that foster children. The complex's grounds house a cottage settlement where 19 families with over 100 children under 18 reside.
Oxana Endrjeevskaya, mathematics teacher at Kysyl-Syr school, indicated that the trip to the "Science Start Point" forum in Irkutsk served as a powerful incentive for developing project activities in Kysyl-Syr school. "We brought 12 works prepared by 19 children. It was our children's first experience in project activities, and it turned out to be highly successful! We won five prize-winning places in different sections, a source of common pride. 'Future Point' left a lasting impression with its approach to education, and the cultural program - Baikal, planetarium, museums - truly inspired the children. The trip wasn't just an opportunity to expand horizons but also united the team and provided a motivation boost for the future."
Kysyl-Syr's school and "Future Point" have maintained a cooperative relationship for some time, with the advanced experience of the Irkutsk complex, including innovative teaching methods and educational space design solutions, successfully implemented during the reconstruction of the school in Yakutia. This collaboration has elevated Kysyl-Syr's school to the status of a model educational institution in Russia's North.
Furthermore, the "New Home" Charitable Foundation is currently constructing a second "Future Point" complex in Yakutia, specifically in the city district of Zhatai, approximately 8 km from the regional capital. The project is being tailored to accommodate local conditions and the needs of Yakutia's residents, with plans to open its doors in 2026.
Amelia Unarova, a student from Kysyl-Syr, shared her experience at the "Future Point" educational complex, expressing, "The approach to education at 'Future Point' fosters personal growth and learning, making one feel like they've stepped into a world specially designed for self-development and education."
Oxana Endrjeevskaya, mathematics teacher at Kysyl-Syr school, emphasized the impact of collaborating with "Future Point" on the school's project activities, stating, "Our participation in the 'Future Point' project has facilitated learning opportunities that promote personal growth, broadening the horizons of our students and fostering a sense of unity and motivation for future endeavors."
