History of the museum creation
The collection of historic artifacts started in 1998. The museum was located in a basement during the first year and exhibits were stored just on top of tables and underneath. A specialised school museum of regional history was established in April 2010 by a non- governmental organisation “Business Youth – Atyrau”, in the person of the organisation Director Gulmira Karagozhina, to celebrate the school's 50s anniversary. The project initiator is N.A. Kulikovskikh. The project was sponsored by the Saipem company and it was managed by Raushan Makasheva on behalf of the Saipem company.

Belemnites - (Belemnitida), extinct,invertebrate animals of cuttlefish class which lived within the period from the Carboniferous period till Palaeogene. They look like calamari but the difference was the internal shell consisting of three parts: phragmocone, proostracum and rostrum. Pragmocone has a cone shape and is divided by cross walls into pockets through which a soft body – siphon was growing.
Belemnites are the minerals mainly found in Jurassic sediments and chalk deposits. Some cone shaped formations are known as “devil's fingers”.

Conclusion
A club is a very effective form of organisation. A club is a team of like- minded people first of all, a composition of experience and youth. School clubs whose purpose is to study regional history require less financial provisions and they do not need big material expenses. This form of work is a complex type of education and upbringing of children. Create school museums! And we will be glad to find out about your work at your clubs!
