Symbolically Warsaw Uprising where took place the turbulent fight, but sprzęgły the fate of the multicultural communities of ełckiej and incumbent here, Germans, Russians and a citizen of France. Once again visited the grave of the soldier's AK, Władysław "Vulture" Świackiego, decorated m.in. Virtuti Militari V class, the patron saint of one of city streets.
The youth was divided into teams which have opted for the the graves for cleaning. Then the youth was asked to describe your experience, which accompanied her during the execution of the work.
Here are some of the statements:
-It was a wonderful feeling that we can do something, not only for others but for themselves. We could not pass next to the graves of neglected, where vegetation passed in front of almost everything. To the extent that one grave almost could not see. I think that did something beautiful -Kornelia wrote.
-Quite possibly is that loved ones are dead, so grave is neglected- she wrote Ola.
-I was proud of my group, with the involvement of the Ambiente show issue -stressed Radek.
-Inscription: "Sister hard for me without you, my heart is crying, because I cannot see You," fell into my memory, gave it a lot of food for thought. Perhaps, if we do not clean the graves, the faster they would be buried? I think this will become my tradition every year. Not much is free, and gives you great satisfaction -noted Julia.
In June 2017, within the framework of the regional education "Regionalism is a patriotism of tomorrow", young people visited the Municipal Cemetery and the military in the Elk to learn its history and local cult of the dead civilians and persons recognized as heroes of the fallen on the field of glory. The trip was an opportunity to get to know the history of the city and the surrounding areas on arrays of tombstones.
Then, it was a common decision to take care of the graves of specimen people, because: "the one who dies takes in memory of the living" -as he wrote the poet, ks. Jan Twardowski.
The scenario of the tour is the lesson was created during the workshop "Regionalism-patriotism of tomorrow". Posted it together teachers from II LO, historians and Artur Jamrożkowie and polonistka Margaret Ladzińska.
