Vladimir Andreichenko presented the first passports to young residents of the Dokshitsky district

On the eve of Constitution Day, during the "We are Citizens of Belarus!" campaign, 11 schoolchildren from the Dokshytsy district received their first passports from the hands of Vladimir Andreichenko, Chairman of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly.

These are boys and girls actively involved in public life and achieving high sports results. For example, Elizaveta Logovik, an eighth-grader at Begoml Secondary School, won the district logic competition:

—There is no such subject at school. I, for example, like the Russian language. But besides that, there were many tasks related to chemistry, mathematics... I had to try hard to win. In addition to my studies, I attend a modeling school. Every Sunday I go to Minsk, take dance and singing lessons. I want to connect my life with the modeling business, become a fashion designer, and showcase my collections. It's nice that we are receiving our main document today in a solemn ceremony.

After the young people were presented with passports and the book "I am a Citizen of the Republic of Belarus," Vladimir Andreichenko recalled how he himself received his first main document:

— Back then, it was not easy for a young man living in the countryside to get a passport. That's why this event in my life happened only after I left to study in a big city. As for the current schoolchildren, I am glad that, despite their young age, they have already done a lot for their small homeland. After all, studying is also hard work. However, one should not stop at what has been achieved. They have many tasks ahead, great victories. Although for this, they will have to try hard. Everything that parents, school, and the state need to provide has been done. This is enshrined in the Constitution. The rest will depend on their diligence, hard work, and responsibility.

Ulyana Oganesyan, an eighth-grader at the Sittsevskaya Secondary School, agrees that receiving a passport is a festive and exciting event:

— After all, a passport is a kind of ticket to adulthood. From this moment on, we bear responsibility not only for our own destiny but also for the destiny of our homeland, whose citizens we have officially become. Thanks to the Constitution, we are provided with all opportunities in Belarus to realize our talents and creative ideas. We will strive to live up to the trust placed in us.

In conclusion of the ceremony, the schoolchildren presented Vladimir Andreichenko with a souvenir – a straw panel made by the students of the Dokshitsy District Center for Children and Youth.
