Students carry lights, cross mountains, wade streams to get to school

(Baonghean.vn) - Cam Lam commune is one of the most difficult areas in Con Cuong district in terms of transportation. This reality has caused difficulties for students' journey to school to find knowledge.Waking up at 4am, in the freezing cold wind, trekking through forests and streams for several hours to get to class is the daily activity of many students in Cam Lam (Con Cuong)...

With the distance from home to school being nearly 8 km, many students at Cam Lam Secondary School in Cam village wake up to go to school when it is still dark.

Many students in Cam village, despite their young age, have to wake up at 4am to prepare for school. In the photo: Lo Van Ba ​​(grade 6) wakes up early to prepare his books for school.

Flashlights are indispensable items for Cam students going to school.

They often go to school together to help each other when needed.

It's the dry season so shallow streams are not a problem but they can be dangerous during the rainy season.

The journey to find letters of Cam village students is extremely arduous and difficult.

Some students have bicycles but have to park them at Cong village, but the road is bumpy...

However, cycling is not always smooth, because the dirt road is slippery.

In addition to Cam village, Bach Son village is also 6 km away from Cam Lam Secondary School, making it very difficult to get to school. Every day, the children have to cross hills and streams very early.

The feet of students in remote villages are rarely kept warm.

Some children are taken to school by their parents early in the morning.

Despite the difficulties, on cold winter mornings in the mountainous region, children's footsteps still bustle on their way to school.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Kim Dung - Vice Principal of Cam Lam Secondary School said: "Although Cam village is the most difficult village in the commune, the quality of education here is the highest. The school's outstanding students are mostly concentrated in Cam village.

Currently, Cam Lam Secondary School has a boarding house for 96 students from 3 villages: Cam, Bach Son and Cai. However, because it has just been completed, it is not possible to arrange for the students to stay there immediately. The school's board of directors said that for now, they will let the students stay at noon, but they cannot arrange for the evening yet.
