ivrea
Piazza Ottinetti as Piazza Castello, with students in Dad from 8am this morning. The Priority School Committee (Pas) Eporedia is not backing down, despite the openings scheduled for April 7 of all grades up to sixth grade schools. The goal, now, as claimed by many parties, is to get older children to go back to school as well.
For this reason, the “one hour a day for school” protest continues, which was held on Monday and Tuesday in front of the Botta high school in Ivrea, which has now become the symbolic place, and on Monday alone at the Montalto Dora middle school. «At school or all or none – wrote the parents and children, who manage the Facebook page“ An open school for an open country ”-. Once again, to ask that distance learning continue to be considered only emergency and not become a stable alternative to structural deficiencies. To ask for concrete and long-term interventions for schools, children and families. Because the school does not close, the school takes care! ».
On Friday in piazza Ottinetti the parents of the committee are hoping for a good participation. «Honestly – explains Silvia Biava, one of the most active mothers -, I was really disappointed with the opening to travel abroad, while our schools will still be closed. I have a daughter in the first year of high school and one in the last and I’m tired of seeing them finish Dad to go back in front of another screen. We must then take into consideration the particularity of sending only sixth-grade children to school, thus breaking a cycle. I also think of the teachers, who will have to give lessons in person, and then go home, because the connections of the schools often do not hold up ».
Pas Eporedia will return to piazza Ottinetti after its debut on Friday 12 March, when for the first time in the city the members of the committee gathered in a flash mob, with a microphone open in the center of the square and expressed all their discomfort. Then mothers, fathers, teachers, students spoke: all those who revolve around the world of school. Actress Simonetta Valenti read the Declaration of the Rights of the Child. Then, in an orderly manner, the demonstrators abandoned the signs on the stairs of the town hall in the town square. Now their voice has been collected in an agenda that will be presented to the next city council to ask the mayor of Ivrea to take a stand on the issue. –
