Friday 4th September was a lucky day for the Blue Key School (Škola Modrý Klíč) as they were presented with a brand new and very big blue bus. The Blue Key School provides care, education, treatment and work opportunities to mentally and physically handicapped children and adults from all around Prague and the bus was desperately needed to be able to collect them from their homes on a daily basis. The bus was bought for the school by the Rotary Club Prague International in cooperation with Rotary Club Praha Staré Město and two other Rotary clubs in the USA, Coral Gables in Florida and Central Delaware County. The whole project was supported by The Rotary Foundation which provided a grant equalling 25 % of the cost of the bus. The staff and clients of The Blue Key School were over the moon with this gift and soon organised a competition to give the bus its own name. From a list of 33 original ideas they finally choose The Blue Mammoth. So the mammoth still lives and has found a new home where it will be very much appreciated! The bus was supplied by Auto Jarov s.r.o. and specially fitted with a lift for passengers in wheelchairs.
