In these last days of July, it is unusually quiet at the children’s recreation centres in Geokdere. The health resorts have taken a short “pause”, which will be interrupted a day before the entry of August into its calendar rights, when the fifth summer shift starts.

However, during this short shift change, the main organisers of the schoolchildren’s summer holidays – specialists of the Ministry of Education of Turkmenistan – have enough to do. There the results of previous seasons are being summed up and an equally fruitful plan for the upcoming work is being outlined, taking into account the special creative, intellectual and sports preferences of young vacationers.
