(Стенды  Британия, Германия, Франция, доска Конфукций) The students of gymnasia 3 have the opportunity to study English, German, French and Chinese. We also learn a lot about the countries where people speak these languages as their mother tongue.

Rostislav  Sidorenko left School 9 in 1938.In 1940 he joined the Red Army where he became a pilot.  During the Great Patriotic war Rostislav Sidorenko was honored the title of the Hero of the Soviet Union for his heroic deeds.

(Начало пути) Officially, the museum was opened in 1997, but its existence began much earlier when the former headmistress Филатова Татьяна Аполлоновна suggested the idea of   organizing a school museum to learn more about the gymnasium and its history. It was the first museum in the whole country of such a kind.

(Стенд 7 «Пионерская и комсомольская организации школы № 9») The history of the gymnasium began in 1917 when the first headmaster Иванов donated it to the city of Царицын. The school moved from one place to another several times. In 1922 the first pioneer detachment was founded on the place of our present location. A unique material about pioneer and comsomol life of the school is collected on one of the stands.

Speaking about the headmasters of our school we cannot but mention two of them Основин и Свиридов who died heroically during the second world war like hundreds of their students and graduates.  (Письма)The letters of these fallen heroes to the classmates and parents are stored in the museum.  Nowadays  the gymnasium introduces modern innovations into our school life which is undoubtedly a merit of the current headmistress Гриценко Лариса Васильевна.

(Клементина черчиль) The museum also specializes in the history of Volgograd. That is how the project "Clementine Churchill: compassion for Stalingrad" was born. It was established in 2010 for the great victory anniversary.

The most striking thing about the project is the attitude towards the relationships between Great Britain and the USSR. It is considered to be the relationship between 2 countries which had millions of victims in the war.
