On the eve of September 1, a theatrical holiday "First time - to first grade" with contests and prizes was held for future first-graders and their parents at the CMC Palace of Culture. The fairytale heroes, together with the children of the workers of the plant, had to find their way to the "Land of Knowledge". Also, dancing and vocal groups of the Palace of Culture of the Chelyabinsk Metallurgical Plant performed in front of the children.
At the end of the holiday, the children received a schoolbag from the enterprise with everything necessary for the upcoming study: pens, colored pencils, felt-tip pens, pencil case and other stationery.
“The plant has been organizing such holidays for 21 years. During this time, we have helped to bring more than 16 thousand first-graders to the school. In addition, according to the collective agreement of the Chelyabinsk Metallurgical Plant, the mothers and fathers of first-graders can arrange a day off with the preservation of wages in order to take their child to the first lesson in life, "said Denis Sazontov, Director of Human Resources and Social Programs of PJSC ChMK.
In addition to the celebration of the Day of Knowledge, the plant, as part of a corporate social program, organizes summer vacations for employees' children on favorable terms. Every year, about 1000 children spend their summer holidays in health camps. ChMK also presents New Year's gifts to employees' children, organizes various sporting and cultural events.
