For over two years, the teachers of the Superheroes School's educational center have been visiting young patients daily at another hospital in Kharkiv, conducting lessons in a smallclassroom and hospital wards. Space was limited, with the classroom accommodating only 7 desks.

Thanks to UNICEF and with the support of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, the superheroes now have a new gateway to the world of knowledge and childhood. The new classroom will serve as a learning space for elementary school students and preschool children.

The new 27-square-meter classroom is equipped to the highest standards with modern furniture and all the necessary resources for lessons, including desks, an interactive whiteboard, tablets, stationery, and didactic materials. There is also a corner dedicated to creative activities.

The opening was attended by Jinan Ramadan, Head of the UNICEF Office in Kharkiv, Vita Koval'ska, Deputy Head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, Svitlana Horbunova-Ruban, Deputy Mayor for Healthcare and Social Protection, and Iryna Tulyakova, Head of the Coordination Center for Family Education and Childcare.

In just September and October of this academic year, 161 children have benefited from educational services, with 1,253 lessons held. “We are sincerely grateful to everyone who contributed to strengthening our hub and worked tirelessly to create this island of hope. To those who, despite the challenges, shelling, and fears, continue to believe in our future – in our children!” said IrynaPonamarenko, Head of the Superheroes School EducationalCenter in Kharkiv.
