To mark the holiday, cadets and students of the Dnipro State University of Internal Affairs, as well as students of the O. Hostishchev MIA Lyceum in Dnipro, visited children in the institutions under the university’s patronage.
Cadets of the Faculty of Training Specialists for Criminal Police Units of the National Police of Ukraine and the Educational and Scientific Institute of Training Specialists for Preventive Activity Units visited the pupils of Special School No. 12 in Dnipro. The students came with games, contests, and sweet gifts, creating a true festive atmosphere for the children. Such visits are an important part of the university’s social initiative aimed at supporting and caring for children who require special attention.
Students of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Law and Innovative Education, together with students of the O. Hostishchev Dnipro Lyceum of Security and National-Patriotic Education, visited the Zorianyi Educational and Rehabilitation Center. Its pupils are children with visual, hearing, and speech impairments.
More than 160 children took part in the festive event. Guests from DSUIA presented an engaging and educational theatrical performance titled “The Magic Book of St. Nicholas,” prepared competitions, entertainment, and warm hugs. The celebration culminated in a disco with fairy-tale characters and the presentation of sweet gifts.
These visits have become not only a good tradition but also a vivid example of the development of the volunteer movement among young people. They demonstrate the importance of social responsibility, helping to foster an understanding of the value of kindness and compassion, shaping an active civic position, and motivating young people to participate in socially beneficial initiatives in the future.
