Dear Knowledge Day: Ksenia Borodina gave 110 thousand for a school uniform

I must say, in 2016 there was a boom in the birth rate. And here is the result for you – seven-year-olds collect portfolios from Alsou, Gluk`oza, Maria Poroshina, Natalia Vodyanova, Valeria Gai Germanika, Sergey Bezrukov, Marina Kim, Agata Muceniece and other personalities known to all of us. Some have already managed to send their children to school, someone will just go. For example, the daughter of Pavel Priluchny Mia, at the age of seven, will go to the second grade. Moreover, as MK managed to find out, it was dad who would be on the line, since Agatha had to leave on business. The mother of two daughters, Ksenia Borodina Jr. Teone, has seven, but for the first time she crossed the threshold of the school last year. By the way, Borodina’s daughters study at the same gymnasium on Rublevo-Uspenskoye Highway, where the children of Alla Pugacheva were seen back in 2022. Approximately a year of study there costs from a million rubles. Recently, Borodina told how much the uniform for children cost her. “It’s good that mom works two jobs. The form for two children is 110 thousand, ”Xenia opened the cards.

In general, there has recently been a fashion in Moscow to send their beloved offspring to elite educational institutions worth several million a year. There is a different education system, so the seven-year-old children of our stars, for example, Ksenia Sobchak and the singer Jasmine, are no longer first graders at their young age. When their peers just cross the threshold of the school for the first time, these kids will be cramming the program … third grade!

“My two older children, Mikhail and Margarita, studied at the same school with the traditional Russian education system, but with Miron the situation is different,” she said. Jasmine – He turned seven this year, my husband and I decided to focus on English and sent him to a school with the British system of education. Children under this system go to the first grade at the age of 5! Of course, for the most part at this age, learning takes place in the form of a game, but by the third grade it is already becoming more serious. Miron will go to the third grade, and he likes school, he has many friends. In the first year of study, he was sad to leave me for half a day, he constantly asked me to sit and wait for him in an armchair in the hallway, but now everything is fine!

But the actress Olesya Sudzilovskaya will take her son Mike to the Russian gymnasium for the first time in the first grade. She still has an older son, but he is already an adult and will go to the tenth grade. But with the younger Olesya again “remember how it was.” As the actress admitted, she is already looking forward to visiting school on September 1.

– I’m wildly excited. We made our debut with our first son, now our parents are experienced, we are embarking on these rails for the second time, – the actress smiles. – Our gymnasium does not require an official uniform, in this sense, you can be free, so my son will have a blue jacket and gray trousers on the line, but at the same time the set itself is very beautiful. We wanted him to feel like a man on the first day. There will definitely be flowers, we will congratulate the teacher. We want Maikusha to understand that teachers deserve flowers – they are one of the most important people in our lives.

– Why was the child sent to the gymnasium?

– In general, we chose the gymnasium because we want to give the child a powerful base of Russian education, where the Russian language and literature are important. It is clear that these subjects will not be taught in the first grade yet, but in any case, such an orientation exists. Patriotic trends, they talk to children in a certain way, set them up, make them think and raise questions that, perhaps, we missed at one time. And for me it is important.

What is your youngest son’s hobby?

– If you follow the principle of psychologists, they say that children under 17 are all talented, the main thing is to give them the opportunity to open up. If I start now to list everything he does and bend my fingers, a separate article will come out altogether (laughs). He has already participated in the Russian championship in aquabike, in hockey competitions. There were chess competitions, the child is also seriously interested in them, he learned to dance, play the piano, ride a horse. I studied English and French from the second year of my stay in kindergarten. Fortunately, we have opportunities for learning. Moreover, he is successful in all directions. A coach comes up to me at every lesson and says: “You should do more of our sport” or “You should spend more time at the piano …” Therefore, I do not put pressure on the child – he will choose what to stop on. The school, of course, will make its own changes to our usual schedule, we have already gone through this. We can go to many places, but time will already be devoted to education for the most part. So sports, music, intellectual development will remain a little in the background.

The star of the series “Rodkom”, “While the village is sleeping” Galina Bezruk is the mother of six-year-old Vasilisa, but the fact that the child has not yet reached the age of seven did not at all prevent her from sending her daughter to first grade for the first time.

– We decided to send her to school this year, because she is very mature: she thinks well, reads, writes. Before that, she had been in a private kindergarten for four years, and I am very glad that, thanks to this, Vasena is so developed, she is so sociable, – said Galina. – In general, there is no reason to detain her for another year, she is already completely ready for school.

– How did you choose your first educational institution?

– Initially, we had one plan, then we had to change it. The fact is that my daughter has a second cousin who is also going to school this year. He was chosen Kurchatov school. We wanted to send them to first class together, but when we moved to the new area where we now live, it turned out that it was overcrowded, and getting in line was a problem. We began to look for an alternative, and eventually found a private school with only 14 students. There is such an individual approach.

– As a rule, educational institutions have some bias. What did you focus on?

– This is an ordinary elementary school, it does not have any special bias. Yes, there are foreign languages. You can learn whatever you want: French, German, English. There are all sorts of sections. And I want to give my daughter the opportunity to choose for herself. Right now, she still wants to learn to play the guitar here as an additional lesson.

– Maybe you should give it to a regular music school?

– I want to see how it all goes. After all, a couple of lessons are enough to understand whether the child will be carried away or not. At one time, the music girl disgusted me, and it was torment. At the age of five I was sent to the violin, I somehow unlearned then three years.

Who will take your daughter to school?

– We still have a nanny, and until I’m ready to give her up, this is our favorite person – practically a grandmother. On days when there is no filming, I will do it.

– Is it likely that the daughter’s father, with whom you divorced, will be included in this process too?

– I think that he, of course, will help, but since he lives far from us, I don’t really count on any kind of inclusion.

A similar story happened to the graduate of the “Star Factory” singer Alexander Kireev. His daughter Stephanie didn’t want to stay in the kindergarten anymore, as a result, the parents had to look for a not very expensive school to go to if you were under six years old.

– I have a November daughter, a scorpion. This November she will be six years old, but she is very developed. In kindergarten, she is already bored, the teachers told us about this: “Another year – and there will be nothing to do here at all, she is not interested.” My daughter went to a private kindergarten, and the people who opened it also founded a private school. They opened the so-called zero grade – something in between kindergarten and first grade. The regime is practically school, they have lessons. And the daughter, of course, is already preparing for the first grade. Mom bought her a suit, a new backpack, they are thinking about a hairstyle for a ruler, – says Alexander.

– Now many private schools cost almost a hundred or two hundred thousand a month. How much will training cost you?

– I can’t pull such a school, and, frankly, I don’t see the point. We have teachers in regular schools as well, with classical Soviet training, with the same correct principles to teach a child. And I plan next year to lead to a public school. It just so happens that in ordinary schools there is no zero class daughter, you have to do this. The cost of our education is about 40 thousand per month, just like the average kindergarten in Moscow.

– I know that your daughter is growing up musically, just like you …

– Yes, Stephanie really likes to study music now, she goes to learn to play the piano with a teacher. And I want to immerse her even more in this, because I see that she is good at music. I will most likely also give it to a music school. We are now carefully watching what she likes and in what cases her craving for knowledge wakes up.
