Reading competition in Glebovotranslated

November 10, 2026 · 1 min read

On November 8, a reading competition was held at the Sunday school of the Kazan Church of the Mother of God, timed to coincide with the patronal holiday of the Kazan Church and the Day of National Unity. The competition was attended by students of the Sunday school and students of the primary school of the municipal educational institution "Glebovskaya Secondary School", where conversations are held about the fundamentals of the Orthodox faith.

The event began with an opening speech from the director of the Higher School, Yulia Borisovna Nezhenskaya. She turned to the children and read E. Yevtushenko’s poem “The Tale of a Russian Toy,” better known as “Vanka-Vstanka.” This set a high competitive spirit.

16 people took part in the competition. The jury selected three first, three second and three third places, since the choice was very difficult.

As a result, the winners were Kirill Semerikov (7 years old) - Higher School, Maria Dolgunova (9 years old) - Glebovskaya Secondary School and Sergey Popov (9 years old) - Glebovskaya Secondary School. They received certificates, medals, books and sweet prizes. All other participants also did not go without prizes and awards.
