You may remember last year I visited School #3 just behind the famous swimming pool:

And I noticed that school #5 was just behind the stadium, so thought I’d pay a visit.
My guide seemed to be quite moved by his school, saying it was extremely reminiscent of the school he went to as a child in Kiev.
It’s forbidden to do a lot of things in Pripyat. But one thing they really aren’t keen on is people going on roofs. The potential for falling off /through is quite a risk (to their reputation too) and in their eyes, it won’t add anything to your experience of visiting an abandoned city.
But I love it, and the second I saw his back turned I bolted for the roof.

Paintings still hanging:
Don’t know if anyone knows it, but this really reminds me of a corridor in Severalls?
Classroom:
As would be expected a lot of the classrooms had an emphasis on science.

My guide and I worked out that 11th January 1986 was the first day of term. The last term that this school ever saw.
