A new kindergarten was opened in Kazan
(KZN.RU, January 12, Ekaterina Andreeva). Today in Kazan a solemn opening of a new kindergarten has taken place in the Novo-Savinovsky district. Kindergarten № 151 located on the Bondarenko Street, 10a, called The Academy of Childhood became the first social institution opened this year. However the city has a reason to expect that the number of kindergartens will increase significantly by the end of the year, and the queue to all in kindergartens will be reduced. Ilsur Metshin, the Mayor of Kazan expressed the opinion at the opening ceremony.
"Just before the New Year Rustam Minnikhanov, the President of the Republic said that in 2011 more than 2 billion rubles allocated for construction, reconstruction and renovation of kindergarten", Ilsur Metshin said.
It is unknown to what extent the program will be backed on construction and reconstruction of kindergartens. The decision on this will be taken by the President of Tatarstan. However Ilsur Metshin expressed hope for support and understanding from the Republic Government and its Head in dealing with such an urgent social problem facing the residents of the capital of Tatarstan.
According to the Mayor, the planned construction and renovation is really accomplished this year. "We can build more, if there would be backing", Ilsur Metshin said.
