A total of 11,542 pupils began the new school year in the Irpin community. For the fourth year running children take their seats to the sound of air defence at work.
This was reported by Irpin acting mayor and council secretary Anzhela Makeieva.
"For the fourth year running we think about whether the little ones will make it to the shelter when the siren goes off," she said.
Even so, in her words, the fact that children have walked back into classrooms is the best proof that the community is alive.
"This is our shared small but very important victory," she added.
She asked people to take care of themselves and to be patient with one another — with children who did not sleep because of night alerts, with teachers who give lessons after a night in a shelter, and with parents who worry every day.
From 2 September the schools of Irpin continue in-person teaching.
As a reminder, Irpin moved the crossing by the railway that schoolchildren use every day.
