The renovation of the kindergarten No.395 of the combined type, which is
located on Serova Street, has been completed. After the renovation, the design
capacity of the preschool increased to 280 places, two nursery groups and one
group for children with disabilities were opened. Ilsur Metshin, the Mayor of
the capital of the republic of Tatarstan, inspected the renovation and talked
with the designers who developed the project of the renovated preschool and the
head of the kindergarten.
“I am amazed! Every visit to a kindergarten, you think about what else
you can improve and create. But your work impressed me, well done! – I. Metshin
thanked the designers. – When both designers and management unite in the desire
to make something beautiful, there is a plane of thought. I used to associate
kindergartens with a kind of melancholy, a little burnt porridge and waiting
for my parents to come. But here everything is completely different. I wish
kids to grow up happy in new comfortable conditions. There is everything
necessary here. Let the children bring this happiness outside a kindergarten, to
their families and to our city, so that we have the happiest city. On the eve
of the New Year, it would be a good gift to residents and children.”
Renovation started in spring in a two-story brick facility built in 1988
with an area 2,500 square meters. The roof and façade were replaced, as well as
entrance groups and utilities, windows, reinforced load-bearing structures, the
territory was landscaped, shade canopies and small architectural forms were
installed.
The head of the administration of the Kirovsky and Moskovsky districts,
Sergey Mironov informed the Mayor the interior design is based on natural
elements. There are sand drawings on the walls, conveying the atmosphere of the
beach, and images of birds of the native land.
“Now children are smarter. But it is very important that the child
understands what ecology is, loves and protects nature. Caring for others, pets,
plants and yourself also begins with a careful attitude to nature,”- explained
the head of the kindergarten, Landysh Yarullina.
The preschool has music and physical education halls, a theater studio,
a methodical room, an office of a teacher-psychologist, medical, massage and
physiotherapy rooms, as well as a food hall and a laundry.
Kindergarten No.395 is designed for 12 groups. At the moment, children
do not attend it and are waiting for the opening of a preschool. They were
distributed to nearby preschool institutions of the district at the time of
renovation.
For reference, the kindergarten No.395 took second place in the
nomination “The best renovated facility” at the Kazanysh architectural and
construction forum, which was organized last week at the Uram Extreme Park by
the Institute of City Development on the initiative of the Mayor of Kazan Ilsur
Metshin.
