In the Center for Personal Development Support - Burgas, the implementation of an innovative project dedicated to computer modeling and information technology has begun. Under the name "I Program with Imagination - Scratch for Little Explorers", it has already sparked the interest of dozens of young enthusiasts from the third to sixth grades.

The school, which has already opened its doors, is part of the wide-ranging activity of the National Program "Ensuring a Modern, Secure, and Accessible Educational Environment". The training is completely free for all students, which makes access to new knowledge even more attractive.

Regular classes are held in the completely renovated computer lab of the Center for Personal Development Support - Burgas. The high interest is visible every day: four days a week, children from different schools in the city visit the school to take their first steps into the world of information technology and programming.

In the classroom, students will have the opportunity to get acquainted with working with a computer and basic software applications. They will learn how to use the internet environment safely and effectively, as well as create their own animations, stories, and games using the Scratch 2 and Scratch 3 platforms. The training is focused on practice and encourages creativity.

The atmosphere in the lab is described as creative, friendly, and inspiring. Observing the work, one can see how each child develops their imagination, learning through play and discovery.

The management of the Center for Personal Development Support - Burgas expresses special gratitude to "Kronospan Bulgaria" EOOD - Burgas for their generous donation. The donated funds have been used for laminated parquet, which has significantly improved the appearance of the computer lab, giving it a more modern and cozy look.

Gratitude is also expressed to the company "Lesprom 2008" EOOD, which contributed to the renovation of the interior. By placing colorful and thematic stickers on the walls of the lab, they created a pleasant and inspiring environment for work and creativity.

The launch of the project and the enormous interest in it testify to the strong desire of the children in Burgas to develop in the field of technology. The city continues to create opportunities for the realization of this desire.
