A shelter built for daily use Alongside the classroom furniture, the shelter includes a restroom, a shower room and a storage area for personal belongings, allowing students to spend extended periods underground if needed, without disruption to their routine. Before the shelter’s completion, students at the lyceum had to rely on remote learning, as the school previously lacked adequate protection for air raids and possible strikes. “Previously, due to the lack of safe conditions, pupils studied remotely. Now they will be able to return to their regular classrooms,” Hanzha said, thanking the Czech partners who helped bring this project to life.
