A boarding school, a home

Societies are obliged to protect and shelter the youngest citizens in risk. Dangers may even come form their own families. In these cases, authorities have to provide kids with a decent home with expert loving carers where they can become citizens.
The boarding schools and institutions we visited made part of the schools. Here there's a small video to illustrate my words.
The boarding house at Tostrup and the institution at Blaesborg belong to Ryomgaard Realskole. And Helle is an only institution in itself.
At Tostrup we met Benny, the manager, who talked aobut the main characteristics of the home. It is for disadvantages kids who have been removed from their parents. They need not only specialised learning tools, but social inclusion work. They go to Realskole and then come back in hte afternoon. Special workers took them to other evening activities such as ballet, sport and so on. Like any kid in a normal family. They have, of course, rules to be followed: no alcohol, no smoking, no drugs, no sex. The cabinet with the fire is a special place Benny decided to build in order to allow smoking to the oldest and to teahcers, himself included. There is also a cinema room, a lounge, a place to play billiards. we sopke for a little bit with kids when they were having their snack. They were happy to be there, although I felt a kind of sadness in all of the, They have to leave the home once a fortnight and travel to their own homes. This weekend can be devastating fro them because they come again to an unsafe world.
At Blaesenborg there is a home where a real couple with their own children live with 7 kidsfrom the boarding school. These boys and girls are already studying at colleges and they come and go everyday by themselves. They have to shop for their breakfast and lunch, but the family provides dinner. They get a kind of salary from the municipality so that they can learn how to manage money. There is a cleaning team and a kitchen team to make the housework. Their rroms are big, well equiped and clean. It was pleasant to be there. They keep the contact when they stop studying in a formal way at least for half a year in order to solve their problems.
Helle is a continuation school for special needs kids, mainly for students with very few expectations to get any more knowledge. Tehy study in workshops where there is a combination of theoretical and practical activities.
I think taking care of these kids is preventing criminality in the future. Once again, it's a good investment.
Too long for a post, but there are many issues to be talked about.
