Leyla Aliyeva Attends Opening of New Kindergartens in Shamakhi

Shamakhi, The Gulf Observer: On August 28, Leyla Aliyeva, Vice-President of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, attended the opening ceremonies of newly constructed kindergartens and nurseries in the villages of Ikinji Jabani and Boyuk Khinisli, built with funding from the Heydar Aliyev Foundation.

During her visit, Aliyeva toured the facilities, reviewing the conditions created for children. Both kindergartens, situated in the centers of their respective villages, are modern, fully equipped institutions designed to meet the highest standards of preschool education. The buildings include bedrooms, playrooms, sports and music halls, medical rooms, dining areas, as well as administrative and technical spaces. Each facility has been furnished with the necessary equipment, while the surrounding courtyards have been landscaped and outfitted with playgrounds.

Speaking to journalists, Tofa Bashirova, director of the Ikinji Jabani kindergarten, emphasized the significance of the project. She explained that the previous kindergarten, which had been in operation for 41 years, had become unusable, forcing staff to continue their work in a private house. “We appealed to the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, and in a short time, a new kindergarten was built and handed over. Starting tomorrow, we will be able to accept children in the new facility. The kindergarten will host groups for children aged 1–3 and 4–6, and we have also received applications from neighboring villages. We express our deep gratitude to the Heydar Aliyev Foundation for creating such conditions for our children,” she said.

Following the ceremonies, Leyla Aliyeva also visited several families in Shamakhi and Aghsu.
