The Yan Bibiyan Bulgarian-German School in Münster, Germany, conducted a project to set up a youth folklore ensemble at the school—a music-and-dance group—thanks to the Fund’s financial support for the session, ‘Young Bulgarians Abroad with a Focus on Bulgarian Folklore’.
Guided by the idea that children should not lose touch with their roots, educators and parents seek to introduce youngsters to Bulgarian national values and traditions—the main goal of the school itself. The project helps to develop children’s musical and dancing abilities, and provides an opportunity to conduct educational seminars. Through the Fund’s financial assistance, instruments and Bulgarian children’s costumes were bought for everyone in the music-and-dance group.
