Pupils of Grozny boarding school for deaf children spending holidays in Nizhniy Novgorod
Ten children between the ages of 7 and 13 who are pupils of the republic boarding school for deaf children situated in Grozny are spending their autumn holidays at the Nizhniy Novgorod rehabilitation school "Nordis", non-government educational institution of the Nizhniy Novgorod Branch of the All-Russian Union of the Deaf. The trip is arranged by the Society for Russian-Chechen Friendship with the financial support of Husein Jabrailov, a Moscow businessman and deputy director general of the "Rossia" hotel complex.
Both entertaining and educational programs are designed for the children.
Karat Airlines solved all problems that emerged with the tickets. Gorky Railroad coupled an extra carriage to the train from Moscow so all the children were together on the journey.
Empathy and compassion do not leave this world. Only 2 out of 75 pupils of the Grozny school have hearing aids. The Profit Medical Center "Slukh" (Nizhniy Novgorod) is carrying a checkup of the children necessary to fit hearing aids for them.
