WITH GRATITUDE, LONGING, AND ENDLESS LOVE… 06.11.2025

A powerful light — Born with the awakening of a nation, Shining in a child’s pencil, a teacher’s voice, a young person’s dream. It is that light that teaches us to find our way in the dark; To enlighten ourselves through science, art, and justice. November 10 is not merely a day of remembrance; It is a day to protect, nurture, and carry that light into the future. We, the children of Işıkkent, Awaken each morning following that very light. We think, question, create, and share… Because we know that to keep Atatürk alive Is to keep his ideas alive. On the path to becoming generations “free in thought, free in conscience, and free in knowledge,” We carry his light in our hearts — With gratitude, longing, and endless love.
