SUSU Invites to “First-graders Parade”

 

South Ural State University and “Intersvyaz” company invite first-grade pupils to take part in the “First-graders parade” holiday.  This year it will take place on the 9th of September in the Central park of culture and recreation named after Y.A. Gagarin. The beginning is at 13:00.

The federal project “Children are our future!”, which was in the course of time transformed into the “First-graders parade”, is taking place for the sixth time this year. Initiated by “Intersvyaz” company with support of local governments the holiday for the first-grade pupils and their parents will take place in Chelyabinsk, Miass, Magnitogorsk, Zlatoust, Ozyorsk, Troitsk, Yuzhnouralsk, Kamensk-Uralskiy in the Sverdlovsk region and Kurgan as well.

In every city this campaign has its own features; however the general idea is uniform. On the first of September in schools there was mass photo shooting of the first-graders as well as their interviewing on the profession which they want to choose in future. Traditionally volunteers from senior students made photos of the first-graders but this time their task was easier. Specially for the project the programmers of “Intersvyaz” company have developed the mobile application which automatically sends photos with comments made by the smart phones to the organizers for further processing. Pictures were made of over 35 thousand Ural pupils which is a record number. Rodion Platonov taught the basics of photo art to the Chelyabinsk volunteers of the parade. A well-known press and art photographer not only gave a theoretical lesson but also explained subtle details of portrait photography when working with children models.

This year more than 15 sites of South Ural State University will be a real surprise for the pupils. The representatives of the institutes and higher schools of South Ural State University will inspire pupils to choose their future profession. The Polytechnic Institute is going to present a robot and a race car, the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science will exhibit a quadcopter, the Institute of Social and Humanitarian Sciences will give a chance to take part in a TV-broadcasting company routine, and the Institute of Law will organize a forensics laboratory. The first-grade pupils will be able to try this or that occupation, to know more about the features of different professions and even to become engineers, journalists, philologists, constructors, programmers, economists, chemists, biologists, lawyers and so on.
