On November 3, 2026, in anticipation of the Day of National Unity, a celebration was held at the Taganrog School No. 1 for children with special educational needs, organized by the students together with class teachers and educators.

The children presented the cultures of the peoples of Russia and the near abroad — from Russians and Cossacks to Armenians, Gypsies, and Belarusians. Each performance was not just a concert number, but also a unique lesson in friendship, respect for the history and culture of different peoples of our great country.

By the order of the dean of the Taganrog district, Archpriest Boris Gushchin, the rector of the Ilinskoye church in Taganrog, Archpriest Pavel Dudoladov, participated in the celebration. Addressing the children, teachers, and guests of the celebration, he noted that true unity is formed not by words, but by common deeds: the efforts of teachers and educators, attention to each child, and readiness to be there.

Special words of gratitude were directed to the director of the school, Tatiana Alexandrovna Zharova, for her wisdom, care for the children and teachers, and her ability to unite the school community around good and important tasks.

It is good that Father Paul emphasized that unity comes from common deeds and not from words. Especially in such a school, where the teachers and educators really care about each child. I thank the director Zharova - she is clearly a person who knows how to gather people around something good.
