Tuesday, April 13, 2021.- Over the past two years, collaboration with neighbors in the Barranco Amarillo sector has been a priority for BluRiver and Entrevientos companies, which once again joined forces to support Dellamira Rebeca Aguilar School.
This time, the contribution consisted of 13 tablets, which will be delivered to girls and boys who did not have the equipment to connect to the virtual classes being taught by the school.
“The pandemic has led us to a different way of teaching. To support online classes, we collaborated with some tablets so that the kids who don’t have a connection can attend classes and have access to education just like all the other children”, said Ignacio Covacevich, BluRiver Salmon Manager.
Meanwhile, John Mateo, Entrevientos manager stated: “these are very difficult times for families, particularly for families in this sector, and together with BluRiver we wanted to collaborate, and we are very happy about it. I know the children will be grateful, we will make life a little easier for them”.
One of the beneficiaries was Monserrat Fernández, who upon receiving this technological tool highlighted: “Before I connected with my mom’s cell phone, but sometimes it would run out of battery and I couldn’t attend the entire class. Now I think this tablet will last many years”.
Likewise, Lucas Carrasco explained: “Before I connected with my old tablet, which is already many years old, which I used to play and for my classes. Now I’m going to use this tablet for online classes”.
Assistance that will also benefit young Josye Paillán, who had to connect using her mother Karin Raipane’s cell phone. Upon receiving the tablet, the school guardian stated: “I have always been with her in classes, but sometimes I had to leave, and I had to give her my cell phone and it was complicated. Now the tablet will be a great help, as it will be easier to connect”.
Finally, Julia Vargas, principal of Dellamira Rebeca Aguilar School, stated: “their access to these devices is complex, especially when parents are out of work and struggle to acquire these tools so they can study and be with their classmates in virtual classes. This is a great contribution and we are very grateful as an educational community”.
