Valdgeym (Russian: Валдгейм; Yiddish: װאלדהײם, Valdheym; German: Waldheim) is a rural locality (a selo) in Birobidzhansky District of the Jewish Autonomous Oblast, Russia. Valdgeym was the place where the first collective farm was established in the Jewish Autonomous Oblast. As of 1992, Valdgeym was the largest farming cooperative in the region.
Valdgeym was founded in 1928 by a group of Jewish settlers from the areas of modern Lithuania, Latvia, and Poland. In 1929, Valdgeym's first school was established with all subjects taught in Yiddish. Among the founders was L. Geffen, who, with his family, fled a small shtetl near Wilno, Poland. In 2004, his son Zyama Geffen, age 83, still lived on the Valdgeym collective farm that his father founded. Zyama was six years old when his father moved to the area in 1928.
In 1980, a Yiddish school was opened in the settlement. During the early 20th century, Soviet Chairman of the Central Executive Committee Mikhail Kalinin desired that Valdgeym and other localities of the Jewish Autonomous Oblast become new centres of Jewish life of the Soviet Union.
С уверенностью можно сказать, это учебное заведение единственное в своём роде - двухэтажное школьное здание не похоже ни на какое другое в области. По словам старожилов, строили его по индивидуальному проекту самого директора Исаака Пришкольника, сообщает корр. РИА Биробиджан.

The way that sunlight flits across your skirt
Makes me feel I'm from another world
To touch your face in the morning light
I hope you're always gonna be around
The times I struggle to understand why
The ancient proverbs like, "Who am I?
Why am I here and what have I done?"
I see the answer's place my trust in you
Trust in you love, be with me then
That's when I want you
That's when I need you the most
I want us to be like Peter Pan
But dreams, it seems are weightless as sand
And man's supposedly is made of sand
It seems that man cannot survive at all
Let's disappear love, let's fly away
Into the demi-monde, into the twilight zone
The times inside I spent screaming at you
Release me please from this mortal jail
One shrug or smile can determine my fate
I'm lost for days and have myself to blame
Something I'm giving, is yours for the taking
Something like sunlight, love is a spotlight
Love is all sorrow, still I'll meet you tomorrow
