Today we were visited by the Association of the Blind of the Istrian County, more precisely its president and his entourage. They held appropriate workshops in the fourth and eighth grades. They told how blindness occurs, how blind people get an education, find their way in everyday life and numerous other topics that interested our pupils. The part of the workshop that impressed the pupils the most was showing and trying out the aids intended for blind people. Others were surprised by the variety of aids and games. This is how the pupils saw a mobile phone, chess, a calculator, and a typewriter for blind people for the first time. There were also aids such as a color identifier, an egg doneness identifier, a talking wristwatch and many other aids. Thank you to the Association for the visit and for the reminder that we are all unique, different, but equally valuable!
