Help for St. Radegund
Parade company donates school to disaster site
After the elementary school in St. Radegund was destroyed by the catastrophic storm in mid-June, semiconductor specialist NXP is now donating 90 containers as an interim solution.
The catastrophic storm in mid-June also left its destructive mark on St. Radegund at the foot of the Schöckl. For example, the elementary school was destroyed and threatened to slide down the slope above the sports field. Children cried as they watched their school being torn down centimetre by centimetre.
Lessons in the armory
"In the short term, the 80 or so children were taught in the volunteer fire department's equipment shed. In the medium term, we decided to build a container school, which will be used until a new school is built in three to four years' time," explains Mayor Hannes Kogler (ÖVP).
The containers for it come from nearby Gratkorn. The high-tech company NXP has built a new office building there - and the previous interim container solution is now coming to St. Radegund. "We learned from committed employees that the school was looking for a new home and we decided to donate the entire interim office building," explains NXP Austria CTO Wolfgang Steinbauer.
"Unique initiative"
A total of 90 containers have now been transported to the Doktorpark in Radegund, and everything should be ready by the start of school. "A big thank you for this unique initiative on the part of NXP," says an enthusiastic local mayor Kogler. MS
