The mayor of the municipality visited the village of Novo Selo

On 03.09.2018, in the settlement Novo Selo, the mayor of the municipality Mr. Albon Xhemaili visited the students and parents of this settlement, who were protesting because of the lack of an elementary school building that had been destroyed by the fire last year. The Minister of Education and Science, Mr. Arber Ademi was also present who in front of the citizens claimed that the competent body for the construction of the primary school building was the Ministry of Education and Science and accepted that all required documents by the municipality were handed over. He argued that the construction of the building would begin soon, but did not specify exactly when it would be.

We emphasize that the Municipality of Bogovinje will continue with the care for maintenance of the existing learning facilities until the realization of the construction of the elementary school in Novo Selo.

Start of the school year

On the occasion of the beginning of the school year 2018/2019, the Mayor of the municipality of Bogovinje visited some elementary schools in this municipality, where he wished to the students and teachers a good year in the educational process.

MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND SCIENCE URGENTLY TO START THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PRIMARY SCHOOL IN NOVO SELO

Dear students, today for you the new school year begins. I wish you to start the better and dedicate yourself to learning and your education. Unlike the other settlements of our municipality, unfortunately, your peers from the village of Novo Selo will not be able to go to school in the school premises, but this start of the school year will start in private facilities. The Municipality of Bogovinje has provided facilities for maintenance, and these students have learning conditions, but we are aware that they are not even close to the conditions of the normal school. We are informing you that the Municipality of Bogovinje has completed all requests by the Ministry of Education and Science and has delivered them on date 17.11.2017. After this we were informed that the construction of the school in Novo Selo is envisaged in the budget of 2018. But as you determine this, nothing has happened. Once again, we ask the Ministry of Education and Science to begin the construction of the school in Novo Selo as soon as possible, in order for the students to have the opportunity to develop their learning in normal conditions. This is not the first reaction from our side where we ask the Ministry to take this problem seriously, because here we are talking about our children, the Albanian children who deserve to be treated better. We as a municipality will continue to help in the educational process in Novo Selo, but so are our possibilities and competences. We remind you that the responsibilities for the construction of educational facilities belong to the Ministry of Education and Science.
