Lukashi Lyceum Reopens After War-Time Reconstruction

The sound of school bells returned to Lukashi village this week, marking the first time students have entered their local classrooms since Russian forces damaged the building early in the invasion. For the 119 children now walking through the doors, the facility offers far more than a desk and a textbook.

The reconstructed Lyceum now serves as a modern hub for the community, accommodating internally displaced families and students with special needs. Behind the structural repairs—which include a new roof, insulated facades, and upgraded heating systems—lies a strategic effort to ensure the building remains functional and warm during harsh Ukrainian winters. Beyond thermal efficiency, the site features improved fire safety and a dedicated shelter designed to keep staff and pupils protected during air-raid alerts.

Funding for the €1.07 million project drew from a partnership between the European Investment Bank and local government resources. This initiative is part of a wider regional recovery plan, with the EIB currently supporting upgrades to 72 facilities across the Kyiv oblast, including healthcare centers and water infrastructure. For officials like regional administrator Tymur Tkachenko, these repairs represent a commitment to stabilizing daily life for residents who have faced repeated displacement. By restoring the school, the village regains a vital anchor, allowing children to reclaim a sense of routine amidst the broader pressures of the ongoing conflict.
