Thứ Tư, 05/09/2018, 06:55
Today, when all the students in big cities are enjoying their first day of the 2018-2019 academic year in well-equipped schools, poor children in Lai Chau have to sit next to the Nam Nga stream as they attend the opening ceremony for the school year.
Due to a lack of facilities, teachers and students of Nam Nga primary and junior secondary schools have to celebrate their new school year beside the stream.
Currently, there are 558 students studying at the two schools.
However, there are only 300 students who can attend the opening ceremony for the new school year in the morning. The remaining students cannot attend due to landslides in the locality.
 
To reach the school, they have to pass hundreds of landslides and rain swollen streams.
The children have to study in makeshift classrooms.
Despite numerous difficulties, teachers and students in disadvantaged communes of Lai Chau still enjoy the first day of a new school year filled with excitement.
