Iisaku schoolchildren research their parish history, 1960

Iisaku koolilapsed uurivad kodukoha ajalugu, 1960

At Iisaku, on the edge of the Alutaguse forests, the seven-year school had a local history circle. In 1960 its teacher and a group of pupils told the radio what they had found: the events of 1917 in Iisaku, the summer of 1940, and the lives of their parents, many of whom were forest workers. The programme, made in the Soviet style of its day, also describes new housing and machines in the forests and fields. Iisaku is still known for its tall church and local museum.

Eesti keeles

Alutaguse metsade serval asuva Iisaku seitsmeklassilise kooli juures tegutses kodulooring. 1960. aastal rääkisid selle juhendaja ja õpilased raadiole, mida nad olid välja uurinud: 1917. aasta sündmustest Iisakus, 1940. aasta suvest ja oma vanemate, sageli metsatööliste, elust. Oma aja nõukogulikus vaimus saade kirjeldab ka uusi elamuid ja masinaid metsas ning põllul.
