At the end of the story is very simple: a girl of four years left without food, in the cafeteria of his asylum, and sent home by the will of a mayor. After all, this is a new, small, fierce story, a story of brave men who get to go to war to children. And it's one of those easy wars in which certain directors of the League try to distort the beautiful face of the north and stain the generosity of the Venetians on the pretext of good administration. Perhaps it would be a "New Adro - questa storia – se a
Fossalta di Piave la solidarietà dei genitori (che sono andati a protestare in istituto), delle insegnanti e dei collaboratori scolastici non si fosse opposta alle decisioni del sindaco e della direttrice scolastica. E sarebbe una storia sicuramente incredibile se a raccontarla a “Il Fatto” non fossero le testimonianze dei genitori, le carte bollate e persino le parole dei diretti interessati.
Ecco che cosa è successo. Nella Scuola dell’Infanzia “Il Flauto Magico” di Fossalta di Piave (che fa parte dell’Istituto comprensivo di Meolo) – una deliziosa scuola con i giochi fuori e cinque maestre bravissime – c’è una bambina di origine African (we'll call
Hope , although this is not his name). Hope he has a family poor but happy. The working-class father, the mother who takes care of the children: he works in the industries of the area, do not miss the bread. Hope has four siblings: two younger than her, the two largest, already in elementary school. When he enters school age can not enroll in school, because no place: the school can accommodate only fifty children. This year, Hope's mother (we'll call Mary, although this is not his name) has time to receive good news and a terrible blow. The good news is that Hope will finally get to school because c’è posto per lei. Accede al tempo pieno, impara subito l’Italiano, si integra, aiuta la propria famiglia – e la madre che si esprime con pochissimi vocaboli e i verbi all’infinito – a inserirsi nella comunità fossaltina. Ma poi arriva anche il colpo: il papà di Speranza, dopo aver perso il suo lavoro e non essere riuscito a trovarne uno nuovo, sceglie di emigrare in Belgio, dove gli hanno promesso un impiego certo. Lo fa, e la piccola famiglia straniera inizia a vacillare. Era lui che si esprimeva in un italiano corrente, lui che teneva i rapporti con gli altri genitori. Maria resta sola: i soldi che arrivano dal Belgio sono pochissimi rispetto alle necessità di cinque bambini. I bimbi delle elementari hanno la meal and full-time, but hope in his new class, (although with the preferential tariff) must still pay fifty euro per month. If you have to tighten their belts are still a lot of money. And so Mary is directed to social services in the municipality, that the answer can not intervene to help her.
In the meantime (just a week ago), the teachers of the school come up with a solution: each of them will give up once a week in which he is entitled to lunch (at work) and will transfer to the child. It 'a gesture of solidarity pragmatic, discreet. Enter into, the two school employees, is in agreement with the religion teacher who comes once a week. In an institution where you are and where they eat 60 meals 50 children, in fact, the advance would be enough food each day (and advance) for all. But the teachers want that there are no irregularities, and so make do: one day one of them back before, another day brings a sandwich, another yet another meal and skip the jokes that do well on the line .
But here ends the good side of the story begins and surreal comedy and grotesque. The League's mayor Massimo
Sensini (who has been informed by the social services and the director) learns that the solution has been found and goes on a rampage. Convene the director of the district,
Simonetta Murri e le spiega che “è responsabile di una gravissima irregolarità”. Prende carta e penna e scrive di suo pugno una lettera in cui si leggono frasi come questa: “Si sottolinea che il personale (della scuola, ndr.) non può cedere il proprio pasto senza incorrere in un danno erariale per il comune di Fossalta di Piave”. Insomma, per l’amministratore Sensini, le maestre che si privano del pasto per far mangiare una bambina di quattro anni, sono paragonabili a dei ladri che sottraggono al Comune beni di pubblica utilità. La direttrice sottoscrive la decisione, e a sua volta stila un ordine di servizio il cui senso è: “Se questo atteggiamento si ripeterà le responsabili saranno denunciate the school board. " With this procedure, the teachers and risk disciplinary action, suspension from teaching. And they do not want to talk. Mary was informed that should appear to take Hope to 12.00 and not more than 16.00. The child is forced to skip the full-time and away from her classmates. Maria does what she was told, and two days ago, the baby starts crying in class when the mother takes her to bring her home. Yesterday, the parents requested a meeting with Director of the Institute to ask you to resolve the situation.
But the question says to "
The Fact:" Unfortunately I agree with the warning that the mayor did. " Questions like the judge's letter and she will respond: "I found it ironic. And useful. " But in what sense? The Murri is an example: "If you have a house in the town can not sublet to third parties, you know? It 's a crime. If you are entitled to a meal from the dining room can not give those who pass. " Try to suggest to the Director that the child is not a person who "passes". The Murri does not accept the idea: "But you see, this is a principle: the solution was serious and damaging. If we all want the free meal What can we do? ". I ask whether he has received other requests: "For now, no. But could not reach many, we are in times of crisis. " Try to ask if he thinks that the fact that the child is outside the EU has resulted in the decision of the board: "I think not. Indeed, this affair is the best guarantee of good faith of the mayor: the child is treated as any Italian would be treated. " Remains still in disbelief and looking for the mayor Sensini, born in 1951. The circles four times, in common, they say you arrive at 17.00. But he does not answer and calls you back. Too bad. After all, this is a simple story, a little story of ordinary ferocity. But an end - thankfully - has not yet been written.
