KORCZAK PLAQUE in WARSZAWA




PLAQUE in WARSZAWA


I went to a primary school named after Janusz Korczak. Before it was just school nr. 211 in the Warszawa down town.

The school was named after Janusz Korczak at the ceremony on May 29th, 1962. Unveiling of a plaque on the building of the school (just on the left of the entrance) was done by Igor Newerly. The author of this great plaque is my mom who used the book titles of best known Korczak books:
.
How to Love a Child (Jak kochać dziecko, Warsaw 1919)
The Child's Right to Respect (Prawo dziecka do szacunku, Warsaw, 1929)
