The last bell will ring for graduates of Tomsk schools on Saturday
As the Tomsk Department of Education explained to the TV2 news agency, schoolchildren study on a six-day system, so the holiday was timed to coincide with the end of the working week. According to the mayor's decree, on May 24, schoolchildren will march through the streets of Tomsk. “49 Tomsk schools will take part in the festive procession. Athletes, future medalists, participants in Olympiads and creative festivals are invited to participate,” the department explained.
