«Auyl mektebi» exhibition opens in Astana

In one of Kazakhstan’s remote schools, students have access to a wide range of extracurricular clubs covering robotics, dramatic and television arts, journalism, painting and crafts, chess, and dombyra. This diversity, showcased through photos, is designed to nurture both creative and intellectual skills. A traveling exhibition titled «Auyl mektebi» has opened in Astana, where visitors can see firsthand how children are mastering the latest technologies in the modern, well-equipped school, enhancing their competitiveness. Following its stop in the capital, the exhibition will move on to Turkistan and Almaty.

«Why was our school chosen for the project? I think it’s because, over the past year, we’ve launched various clubs and courses at our school-lyceum, and we’re already seeing results. Our schoolchildren who participate have won awards in regional and national robotics and science competitions,» said Ruslan Sailaubayev, principal of the Bokeikhan hub school-lyceum No. 15.

«The works featured in the creative hub will be displayed for 20 days and shared on social media. The photographs highlight teachers who chose their profession as a calling, as well as students who have achieved remarkable academic success. Through this exhibition, we want to tell their stories – students and educators who, despite the school’s remote location, dedicate all their energy to learning and personal growth,» noted project officer Togzhan Kurmanzhankyzy.
