Below is the letter written by our headmistress Caterina Azzini, published today, Tuesday 9 February 2021, in the newspaper La Nuova Ferrara.
This letter is in response to the article below, published by La Nuova Ferrara on 4 February 2021 .
Our budding Secondary School writers are receiving a prestigious award for ranking in the national competition, ‘Che Storia!’
The ceremony will take place on Monday 12th October at the Auditorium of the Central National Library in Rome. The event will honour the best features written by High School students and edited by teachers.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and a recent resurgence in cases, our school will not be there to receive our awards. It was a hard decision to make, but a necessary one to ensure the safety of our staff and students.
We deliberated this decision until the last minute, so that we may make a timely judgement. Although we regret not being there in person, we believe this is the best course of action. This choice in no way diminishes the pride we feel for our talented students.
We would like to congratulate our star student authors, once again: Matilde Baldassari, Andrea Ottone Berselli, Giulia Cavicchi and Fiorile Giacomoni.
