How much interest is shown in a 12-15-year-old teenager about his parents' everyday life? How much does it know about practical things? What does the word “business” mean to them? We learned from Nautrēnu secondary school students who participated in an informative educational event for pupils on 3 November.
Anastasia Saleniece's conversation with children in the Rēzekne section of THE LLCC Rēzekne Division began about how much they knew about entrepreneurship in the surrounding area. Before school holidays, children were asked to prepare a presentation, drawing or collage for their parents' or grandparents' farm. In a cosy atmosphere, pupils presented their works. In stories, presentations, pictures, we heard about excitement (photography), work on parents' holdings, how much children understand and know what their parents are doing, what the final result is. Interesting stories were about how the name of the farm was chosen.
Pupils from several parishes are active in the small group. The basic occupation of children of children is mostly agricultural. We found that they were small farms with an average agricultural area of 15-25 ha. In the case of one girl's parents, the grain area is above 100 ha, in addition to the retail trade. There are 30 dairy cows, including sheep and pigs, in another holding. A total of 20 pupils from Classes 6-9 took part in the event.
The parents of children are active and responsive. Agnes and Marika's parents are growing strawberries, dealing with floristic, rock-pinning. Momma League Skabe showed how strawberry plants are prepared for further cultivation, including storage. In order to better understand how the separation of plants took place, the best plants were selected, the league pupils engaged in an attractive game.
In a more comfortable mood, the head of the youth centre, Egita Mitchāne, employee Inita Pudze, was offered warm medical tea by her grandmother, Anita Šķestere. The first day event pupils were rated as successful. How the pupils presented their works, their story, and the skill of speech, showed that participation in minors had a positive role. Children are preparing a variety of projects on their own, engaging in summer camps.
The aim of this measure was to approximate the cooperation of children and parents, to raise awareness of very practical things, to raise awareness of what business is.
The main conclusion is that there is a lot of lessons to be learnt in order to be able to continue the work of parents. We must realise that we are creating the environment themselves. THE participants and manager of Nautrēnu are very much thanked BY THE LLCC Rēzekne department for the event.
In the second day of the second day, the activities of the activity “information measures for young people and pupils” of the activities of the State Rural Network implemented by the State Rural Network of 4 November, “promotion of the agricultural and forestry sector in general educational schools”, was evaluated by the participants of THE Nautrēnu secondary school minor regiment. The children of the Retro moto club “rust wind” wrote: excellent, cool, attractive. The score was good, but it was not so easy to schedule the journey. Students have seen much. Each year, a variety of locations are seen while driving excursions. These are rural children whose parents or grandparents almost all have their own holding. So the purpose of the journey was to show how different they could be in the countryside. It was decided to visit three businessmen in the municipality of Tilja.
As we followed the instructions, we came to the horse-seat “Kapuleja”, where Andrew and Larisa Clitonchiki met us. The family deals with horse husbandry and guests are offered to ride horses, travel in a cart, or go out in the winter. The master Andrejs told him that the horses had always been in these houses, his father and his grandfather. It was only necessary to consider, adapt to today's demands and increase the number of horses. Horse-growing is a costly industry, at the same time interesting. Everyone must do what they know best, which is a heart. The pupils had a special joy about the little fool, each trying to take a picture of one of the horses, fought them with apples and carrots.
The snow was quite commissioned on this day, and a huge pleasure was to ride in the ragava. With impatience, each of them waited for their turn to be on the horse's back and proud. Although not so great and noble as a horse, the pony received a great deal of attention.
In the summer, a horse-lace competition is held in the Horn of Kapuleja, the Latgale Championship, the Stage of the Cup of the Latvian Federation of the Russian Federation in the carriageway. The farm has focused heavily on the development of children's ratings by attracting European Union funds.
An interesting place is located on one kilometre trip – the association “Retro moto club“ rust wind ”. The leader of the association, Kaspars Romanov, a young man who had returned to Tille after studying, had brought the idea of the creation of the Retro motto's enthusiastic assembly. In implementation of THE LEADER project, approximately 100 Retro motorcycle parks have been created. Here you can be active with Retro technique, go out. Caspar says that the idea is much.
In order to raise funds for increasing the fleet of motorcycles, the machinery for the preparation of wood is purchased. The prepared wood is used as an exchange product against a motorcycle. The association offers an opportunity to organise psychologically pedagogical lessons and seminars. The main thing is that the “rust wind” works attractive, modern, besty. In addition to the trips, a variety of interesting activities are offered. Students with enthusiasm fulfilled all the tasks, receiving praise and prizes at the end.
“Ezerleys” led to a very winding road. The house in a beautiful, quiet place. The farmer's owner, Skaidrice, says that they live in the ear of God. The housewife tells her what “Ezerleys” is doing when she goes to see more than 1000 stones. It is based on beekeeping. In addition to floriculture, Lily, dayflowers, Hosts, peonies are grown for beauty and sale. Stones - It's a hobby. Almost every one of them has something to say. Start with millstones. Here you can see the stone of happiness, the stone Napoleon, THE NLO, the footprints of the child in the stone, the contour of Latvia... A whole geography and history book would come. It is necessary to wish that the power, the imagination, the strength of the master, because it is not so easy to exist, if you are the environment, the nature and your small corner of the earth, green-thinking.
The children expressed their wish to come here again in summer with their parents. Who doesn't like beauty?
The event took place within the framework of the activities of the State rural network “information measures for young people and pupils” within the framework of the sub-activity “Promotion of the agricultural and forestry sector in general educational schools”.
