Migrants mastered the skills of men’s haircuts
Secondary school “St. Sava” from Sombor realized a workshop on the men’s haircuts with migrants who are accommodated in the Sombor Reception Center. After a short video about men’s haircuts, the teacher briefly explained the tools and accessories used and the sequence patterns in the haircut process. The migrants then discussed the hairstyle models they wanted.
With the assistance of the teachers of this school, they moved on to practical work, which includes cutting with scissors and combs, cutting with a clipper with different extensions, disinfecting accessories and tools. With a little nervousness and obvious satisfaction, young people from the Sombor Reception Center very quickly became actively involved in the work. Especially interested was a young man who has already had experience in haircutting, but he listened to the instructions and corrections of the teacher carefully and applied them.
After the gathering, the Secondary School “St. Sava” gave the participants of the workshop a set of hairdressing accessories as a souvenir.
In 2021, the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development continued to support educational institutions with the aim of sustainable inclusion of migrant pupils. One of the most important activities within the EU Support to Migration Management in Serbia is the implementation of small grants. Small grant activities are carried out in primary and secondary schools by including migrants in the education system. Secondary school “St. Sava” is one of the beneficiaries of a small grant, and offers education in leather, textile and hairdressing, as well as profiles for manicure and pedicure.
