As part of the closing of the third work semester, the best student detachments of the Vitebsk region were awarded
Over 200 members of student teams, commanders and commissars of territorial headquarters, veterans of the youth movement of Belarus, and heads of organizations hosting student teams were awarded commemorative statuettes and valuable gifts for their successes in the third labor semester.
Vyacheslav Durnov, Deputy Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee, congratulated the participants on this significant day.
— Every year, young people show increasing interest in the student team movement, which not only fosters camaraderie but also provides invaluable assistance to the state, as student team members acquire valuable skills in agriculture, medicine, pedagogy, and beyond. They learn to work in a team and take responsibility, which will undoubtedly be useful to them in the future. For many, it becomes a true school of life, determining their future professional path, — noted Vyacheslav Durnov.
A pleasant surprise for the participants was a congratulatory message from a veteran of the student team movement, Boris Ryklin, who noted that the traditions laid down in the 1960s by the youth of that time are in reliable hands of the young generation of the 21st century.
Zhanna Naritsyna, First Secretary of the regional committee of the BRSM public association, spoke about the successes of the region's student teams.
— Members of student teams are the most disciplined, well-mannered, active, and creative individuals. They are ready to help everyone and are not accustomed to sitting idly. This is confirmed by numerous victories in competitions at the republican level. For example, our team won the All-Belarusian Youth Construction project and the MAZ "Avtozavodets" republican project. With their achievements, the young people set an example for the youth, contributing to the formation of a new generation of responsible and purposeful citizens, ready to tackle the most complex tasks and make a significant contribution to the country's development. Their enthusiasm and pursuit of excellence serve as an inspiration to many, proving that youth is a force capable of transforming the world for the better, – shared Zhanna Naritsyna.
The production student team "Berkut" named after Hero of the Soviet Union Lieutenant General Georgy Batalov, which celebrated its 5th anniversary this year, was among the awardees. The team's commissar, Ivan Stranchenko, spoke about Berkut's activities.
— Any active and creative student from the Vitebsk State Technological University can join our team; the main thing is desire and aspiration. It is gratifying that our activities benefit the state. We became winners of the MAZ "Avtozavodets" republican project. This success inspired us to new achievements. Each member of the team is a unique individual whose ideas and energy help us move forward, overcoming any obstacles, – said Ivan Stranchenko.
Members of the student pedagogical team "Phoenix" named after Hero of the Soviet Union Alexander Azonchik work annually at the All-Russian Children's Center "Orlyonok" in the Krasnodar Territory, where they gain experience in organizing children's leisure activities from their Russian colleagues, exchange educational methodologies, and strengthen friendly ties between the youth of different countries.
— For the fifth year now, our students have been sharing their knowledge and talents with children. This is not just a summer job, but a real school of life. The opportunity to collaborate with young people from other countries, to learn about their culture and traditions, makes this experience truly invaluable. We believe that such joint projects are a solid foundation for peace and mutual understanding for future generations, — said Yana Moroz, commander of the student detachment of VSU named after P. Masherov.
By the way, the total number of student detachment members in the Vitebsk region is 7011 people.
