Step to the New Start

At the embankment, holders of Altyn Belgi from the whole region gathered together with Pavlodar school leavers. Pavlodar Oblast Akim Bulat Bakauov decorated each of the 208 former schoolchildren with the plaque of honour.

– With my whole heart I congratulate you, your parents and teachers who have been with you all these 11 years, – he said to the school leavers. – Crossing the threshold of a school, saying goodbye to your tutors who have taught you to tackle with the problems, be independent in their views and strive for inventions you are standing at the verge of new achievements. The years will go by, however, you will always remember your school life. You are a happy generation because you live in the era of stability and prosperity because you are the eyewitnesses of the origin of the new step in the history of our country.

The school leavers and their parents danced the school waltz directly at the embankment. After that Yerke Yesmakhan, bands Raim&Artur, BN and other Kazakhstan pop stars took the stage for the heroes and guests of the festivities.
