Day of Russian Culture

Earlier this year, I mentioned the Dundee Russian School, an excellent initiative taking place at Harris Academy on Saturdays.

Earlier today at Harris, the school held a Day of Russian Culture, and I was pleased to be asked to say a few words of welcome to the audience, along with one of the Vice-Consuls from the Russian Consulate General in Edinburgh and Dr Andriy Sukhodub, head teacher of the Dundee Russian School.

It was good to see all the children taking part, enjoying themselves, whilst progressing their knowledge of the Russian language.   Here's a couple of photographs from the event :
