Distribution of school bags and equipment to students of Rabiya School

Rabiya School, which includes students from the first grade to the sixth grade, was founded in 1991, with 300 students, named after Rabiya in relation to the village in which it is located, as well as to the farm of the same name. 

The school closed during ISIS control and reopened after the liberation of the area, which now has about 200 students.

The project of “Me and My School 2” targeted Rabiya school in the campaign to distribute bags and school tools in order to reduce the expenses of education that may burden the parents of students, as well as to encourage children to return to school , and on 11/11/2019 the project staff distributed 195 bags to students after having some sweets provided by the organization’s team.

“Me and My School 2” is a project that aims to provide students in 13 schools in Raqqa city and its countryside with school bags and tools to meet their basic educational needs. Launched on 20 March 2019 by GAV for Relief and Development, my school is a continuation of the “Me and My School” project, which aims to create the right environment for the families and children of Al-Raqqa and Al-Qahtaniyah area of the governorate countryside to engage in the educational process in a coordinated and orderly manner, and to encourage the return of displaced persons to their liberated towns and villages, as part of the organization’s plan to respond to the needs of the education sector in north-eastern Syria.

The first phase of the project included a service response to 37 schools among the most affected by the war in Raqqa and its countryside by maintaining its blackboards and providing its classrooms with seats, tables, chairs, stationery, chalk and children’s entertainment sets, as well as providing schools with billboards, trash cans and garbage containers.
