Five Ukrainian children, all brothers, were registered as auditors at the Iuliu Maniu Greek Catholic High School in northwestern Oradea, after their parents brought them from Ukraine, refugees from the war.

According to the high school director, Antonia Nica, the five Ukrainian children were enrolled in school classes as auditors, having the right to participate in all lessons, even if they do not yet have equivalent studies.

"The children are extremely well educated. They are in fact six siblings, of different ages, but the little one is very young and is not of school age. The four boys and a girl are students in the preparatory classes, the third, the fifth, the girl in the 6th grade and another boy in the 8th grade. Each of them knows little Romanian, the eldest has a better command, the youngest, six years old, speaks only Ukrainian, but the six-year-olds understand each other anyway, they have no problem. And our teachers received them nicely, gave them presents and they are as good as integrated, even if it is not known how long they will remain," professor Antonia Nica told AGERPRES.

The five children were brought by their father to Oradea last week and have been in school for the last three days. According to Antonia Nica, their mother is from Bihor and she met her future husband, the children's father, years ago while studying in Austria. He is an Ukrainian Greek Catholic priest and they moved to his country together. In the context of the military conflict with Russia, the father brought his wife and children to Oradea, to his wife's grandmother, and then he returned to the conflict zone.

The children adapted quickly, especially since they also received sweatshirts with the insignia of the school, which are part of the school uniform, the parents' association provides them with the necessary supplies, and the Greek Catholic Episcopate provides them with meals.
