A new-year’s matinee at Haileybury Almaty school!
On 14th of December, 30 kids from "Zhanuya" specialized complex were invited to the new-year's matinee arranged by pupils and teachers of one of the best schools of our city, an English school Haileybury Almaty. Children, arrived to Haileybury by specially arranged busses and just from the lobby they were taken to the remarkable museum, where the pictures, toys and great number of other wares made by own hands of Haileybury pupil were exhibited. Also, the school prepared a musical concert, where children together with their teachers played for the guests the wonderful etudes on a piano, violin, flute and sang joyful songs to the accompaniment of a guitar. Children from "Zhanuya" also decided not to stay behind and, by way of a thank-you, read a few poems.
And what a holiday without the gifts?! Every Haileybury pupil prepared a gift for the children from "Zhanuya" as books, sweets, toys, clothes, stationery and a play-station. It was so touching to see the girls giving their gifts to girls and the boys to the same strong boys. Moreover, the Administration of the school presented a big plasma-screen TV to "Zhanuya" specialized complex. And at the end of the event, all kids went to the school canteen where a table was covered with various delicious food, and all of a sudden the cook brought a big cake with candles. All the kids and the tutors were in raptures!
A special gratitude to the youngest pupils of the school from 1-2 classes for arranging "pyjama party" and giving the raised funds in the amount of 55,000 tenge to "Dara" foundation for purchase of new-year gifts for the kids from orphanages.
We express our sincere gratitude to the children, teachers and the Administration of Haileybury school for arranging such a wonderful event on the eve of new year!
