– Thank you for keeping standards high in representing our region in the Delphic Games. Novosibirsk residents have been successfully participating in this youth creative competition for 16 years already. During this period, our team has received gold medals six times and we have always been among the winners. Moreover, if we address to the unofficial medal results of the Novosibirsk teams in the Games, then our groups will probably be the most successful among other regional teams in the country. These successes are surprising. They reflect the impact of our teachers’ traditional school, a powerful school that has been grown up in the Novosibirsk region. This also confirms the fact that our region is the main cultural center. It is true to say, Novosibirsk always attracts talented and gifted young people who want to grow and succeed. All your achievements are a huge contribution to the common picture of prosperity, glory, pride, history of our region, - emphasizes the Governor of the Novosibirsk Region Andrey Aleksandrovich Travnikov.
