On February 25, at the InEU Higher College, a lesson in courage on the topic: “Youth is scorched by war,” dedicated to the 33rd anniversary of the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan, began with a minute of silence. Together with us, guests who performed their official duty outside the Fatherland came to honor the memory of the dead soldiers – internationalists: Isenov Marat Kabdylmazhitovich and Mustafin Orazbay Zhasauovich. During the literary and musical composition, poems and songs of the Afghan war were performed. A fragment was staged by students from the scene when the son writes a letter from Afghanistan to his mother, and she prays to God that he will survive in this war. Marat Kabdylmazhitovich and Orazbay Zhasauovich spoke about their service in Afghanistan, answered questions of interest to the children. During the event, students came to the conclusion that a generational connection was necessary and young Soviet soldiers were doing their duty. Deputy Director for Educational Work Apaeva Zh.K. thanked the guests and presented them with memorable gifts. I would like to note the teachers of NVP N.T. Magzumova and M.I. Dzhanakhmetova for the preparation and holding of a military-patriotic event, the purpose of which was: to preserve the memory of history, the formation of the education of patriotism, the connection of generations.
