Thanks to the intervention Eksemettin school headmaster, Mr Nihat, I was allowed to visit the Spastic children's fundation of Turkey, their Metin Sabanci education and rehabilitation center and Metin Sabanci primary school for children with cerebral palsy.
The Spastic Children's Fundation of Turkey was founded in 1989. They must commemorate to the prof. dr. Hifzi Ozcan and Sabanci Family - Sakip Sabanci who making prof. dr. Ozkcan's ideals come to life. Without their faithful support and generous contributions, SCFT wouldn't be the fondation it is today.
I meet with the headmaster of the Metin Sabanci primary school and with the project manager of the fundation. I spoke with very enthusiastic headmaster, excellent instructors and special teachers who are experts in their field teach with the most advanced pedagogic methods and materials. What I saw, It very impressed me.
Sincerely and deeply from my heart, I want to thank the leadership of the Foundation and the school, that gave me this oportunity to see their institution and work. I wish and I hope that we can try to develop a joint project on aspect of this area of education. I would like to stay in touch with you.

Dear Tanja,
ReplyDeletethank you for posting these photos. As a mother I feel torn. On one hand I am sad, but on the other, it is wonderful that such a centre exists. I am not even sure if we have this kind of institution in Slovakia. I think that children in Istanbul are lucky to have so well equipped movement analysis room and speech therapy room. I wish the centre, its employees and students all the best!
Love,
Ada
