On March 1, 2025, the excursion of the FOST students with the supervisors of the departments of Medical Biology and General Genetics and Russian and Belarusian Languages to I.E. Repin's estate “Zdravnevo” took place.

The students with pleasure took part in the festivities of the ancient holiday “Maslenitsa”: watched a theatrical performance, became participants of national games, round dances, tasted traditional pancakes and other festive delicacies, as well as visited the house-museum of the artist. Thus, the children got acquainted with Belarusian national traditions, joined the cultural values of the country where they study. They spent their day off joyfully, interestingly and unusually.

Impressions about the trip, winter fun and snow will fly in the form of photos to warm countries for parents and friends! With comfort from the threshold and to the threshold of the hostel students were delivered by the bus of VSMU.

The University pays great attention to the adaptation of foreign students, creation of comfortable conditions for their education and integration into cultural and social life. Such activities as excursions and participation in traditional holidays help students to better understand the culture of Belarus, feel themselves a part of the university community and adapt more easily to the new environment.
